Because I'm a Black woman Artwork

My young experiences made it easy for me to identify with the underdog, and to constantly question and attempt to make sense of the world we live in. Theatre does the same with its depictions of the alienated, the undervalued and the misunderstood. Theatre questions the status quo, and prompts the audience to look inside themselves for answers. By using the theme of theatre in my artwork, I am provided with a platform to express my affinity with so many of the sentiments and moral challenges presented on the stage. Collage and mixed media techniques allow me to be experimental and to work in an intuitive fashion. Every piece of art that I create is a combination of my inspirations, my life experience and my subconscious mind. My focus on the theatre helps me to identify and clarify in my creative pieces exactly what it is I care about in this world.
