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.


Build that wall... with cigar boxes

An idea is worming its way through my design process: a wall built on cigar boxes. (Betcha mine will be finished before the one on the United States’ southern border.)

It’ll most likely (okay,definitely) be smaller than works like the more than 30-feet tall spider by Louise Bourgeois, which required skilled art fabricators to bring to life. But when my lil’ ol’ wall takes a more firm shape, I’ll let you in on my process. Stay tuned.
