I am a visual artist working in collage, assemblage sculpture and altered books. My practice explores identity, memory and the history of the African diaspora. Vintage and contemporary images collide to convey how the past informs the present.


Bluebird of Testosterone, slam-bang edition

The Bluebird of Testosterone is back -- summoned by TwoBoo, of course.

TwoBoo is sitting in The Husband's lap. They're discussing how to make The Husband open his hand and release the quarter inside.

The Husband: It's not strength, it's a question of leverage. How can you make Daddy open up his hand?
TwoBoo, cheerfully: With a hammer?
The Husband, stifling laughter: Well... yeah... but how can you do it in a less violent way?
TwoBoo: With a hammer?

Why bother finding another way when this one works, right?
