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.

"Los Angeles", "family vacation", "on-the-fly photos"
Spent a little time surfing the freeways to visit my nieces for their birthdays recently. There was a sulking episode involving The Boy and an excruciatingly loud toy recorder/flute party favor, but we won't dwell on that. TwoBoo napped (!) while we drove, and my mind played "Boys of Summer" as I snapped mountain ridge photos. I never thought I'd miss dried-out chaparrral. Sigh.

I miss LA sometimes.
