The Lineage Embrace

Not on view

Stylized figures, often echoing the aesthetic of African masks, embody both presence and protection, forming an unbroken chain of support.

About this work

I reflect on ancestral memory, collective identity and the ways we are held by those who came before us. I create rhythmic compositions that evoke the warmth, strength and quiet resilience of generational bonds. Stylized figures, often echoing the aesthetic of African masks, embody both presence and protection, forming an unbroken chain of support.
