Statement

my creative practice shifts between sound and visual;  music being the bedrock and visual being the flora that grows from it.  visually I play with gauche, watercolor, pastel on paper.  i am compelled to bring to life and provoke the plain and magical existence of black queer folks and keep reimagining and researching our past and future as beings who are part of nature.
