My projects are a deep dive in exploring a specific subjects or contemporary topics. I do extensive amount of research to come up with my visual interpretations. I incorporate a variety of mediums to help me further access and decipher my creativity. Check out my current projects below.

As Black bodies were pirated and forced to leave their home lands due to the various slave trades; the water has become this eternal portal of memory for those that chose and didn't choose the ocean to be their vessel for eternity. These memories as well as the substance of water is crucial for our survival.
