My medium of choice is acrylic on canvas, and I refer to my resulting works as “Abstract Afrocentrism.” The term is derived from figurative meanings of the verbs “to remove” and “to separate,” which I use to distance the viewer from stereotypical perceptions of blackness pervasive in Western culture.
Through bold use of color, l offer insight into the experiences of transnational and diasporic communities. My art acts as a catalyst for re-centering the black experience in a more heterogeneous light in the minds of everyday people.


My goal is to take viewers on a journey into the different elements of Afro-culture through the use of abstract techniques that prompt them to see the subject matter beyond the stereotypical perceptions prevalent in everyday society.
