Personal Project
This work, titled "Descendants," is a self-portrait series referencing the relationship between the black body and nature. This series is a way to regain my agency with the land around me. “Descendants” is a self-initiated homecoming: I am grasping at my lost heritage within the landscape that was the epicenter of colonialism, slavery, racist policy, discrimination, and hatred. My history is embedded in the American lands, yet I can barely see or recognize myself.
