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.

The last days of my museum exhibit are upon  us: You're Not From Around Here, Are You? closes in one week!

True, the exhibit closes after April 8th, which is in nine days. But the Northwest African American Museum is closed Mondays and Tuesdays. So if you've got a day job, or you're a student, realistically you might have only this weekend or next weekend left to visit.

One last reason to go: some of these artworks have been sold to art collectors.

Once the show closes, I'm shipping those pieces off to their new homes. So if you'd thought about buying one yourself...

NOW is the time to speak up for the artwork you love. (And yes, I do installment payment plans.) Let me know: contact me here.
