I am a visual artist working in collage, assemblage sculpture and altered books. My practice explores identity, memory and the history of the African diaspora. Vintage and contemporary images collide to convey how the past informs the present.


Connecting with your humanity, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.

Connecting with your humanity, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.

I don’t know who needs to see this, but it’s still true — more than fifty years after Martin Luther King, Jr. said it:

This MLK holiday weekend, how about we make a conscious effort to do things that make us more human?

Volunteer projects are great — and so is learning more about systemic inequalities that make volunteering so necessary. So is supporting art about fighting for freedom. Art is one of the most human ways to process these big issues — making it, seeing it in person, and even collecting art that moves you. If you’re specifically looking for my art, you’ll find it in Portland until the end of the month. Go: do something that helps you connect with people instead of things.
