My art has predominantly taken the form of gallery installations, mixing photography, video projection, 3D and 2D visual art to construct environments that bring to light the nuances of systemic oppression, white supremacy, and other pressing realities for BIPOC of our time. It has served as a contextual backdrop for social justice gatherings, such as local All Black Zine release events and the multimedia Goody Night storytelling experiences, and has on occasion been the target of racist attacks.
