Openings
mixed media sculptures, various sizes
paper, canvas, found objects, acrylic paint, modeling past, raffia, burlap, oyster shells, wood, cardboard
Inspired by the hush harbor, the sukkah, and earthfast structures that freed Black folks built post-emancipation, Openings are abstract representations of various fugitive cartographies. Each opening is a meditation on sites and spaces, both physical and imagined, of the night sky, the woods, the horizon, the waterways, the truckpatch, the kitchen, and more.
