"In this collection of works, each piece is meant to express blackness using dramatic gestures, compositions & color pallets to perpetuate the afro-experience. The sequence of the collection is meant to complement each of the individual pieces; with high-intensive color to signify the loudness of the paintings, as they scream "pay attention" to the viewer.  Whether the statement is "black beauty", "black trauma" or the overall "black experience", each piece shares the same vibrant nature to be expressive and flamboyant."
