Interdimensional Realms Collage

I’m intrigued by the notion of plaines of existence those proven to actually exist, planes in which hinge on a religious or metaphysical belief or perspective. And even those that are truly a figment of one’s active imagination.     This work is about the intersection of a triad of seemingly continuously intersecting ideas I have been contemplating since I can remember, regarding negotiating the plaines of existence and plains of consciousness. This triad of the triple consciousness, the awareness of being a person of African and Puerto Rican descent and being a black women within a patriarchal American society. All descriptors that people/society utilize to carelessly force together in order to justify their ill actions and behaviors.  This work references, navigating life through the skin of black and brownness.  It is inspired by the Romare Bearden’s Caribbean influenced works in which focused on tropical landscapes juxtaposed to faux landscaped scenery. I personally identify with works such as In a Green Shade because my family is from the Caribbean. I have seen, felt and been a part of these lush filled, sometimes intoxicating tropical environments within the islands that make up the both the U.S. Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands.
