I am a largely self-taught visual artist and product designer. I work mainly in digital portraiture and surface pattern design, creating illustrations that display Black womxn in the centre of the image, taking up space and reclaiming visibility on their own terms. My illustrations focus on Black joy as well as nostalgia from the perspective of someone who was born in one place but raised elsewhere - the thread that our past weaves with our future, our ancestral connections and how that informs how we build community is something I am continuing to explore within my daily life as well as my art practice.
