Untitled (2019)

In order to know where you are going, you must understand where you are coming from. Untitled is representative of the perception of black women documented throughout history. It’s about the conditions given to you that don’t match what is expected of you.

You should be soft, yet you are constantly placed in a position where you need to be the opposite to survive. You are forced to be a protector but who protects you? You can’t fall apart, and if you dare to, you must do so quietly because judgement awaits you.

Silence in the shadows because if you dare complain, criticism awaits you. Let’s not forget, it is all in your head. Life is fair, to everyone, including you. In order to know how to navigate where we are, we must also understand where we were.
