my love is too magic... -Ntozake Shange

Nëku…Genesis is my first series of multiples.

Nëku evolved from my series, “My hair is apolitical.”

Nëku is a Mende (Sierra Leone) word that refers to the sprouting of a plant. The Mende refer to nëku God's model of beauty.

Hair growing from roots of wisdom, defying gravity, communing with the stars.

Imagine thinking outside of social constructs and hierarchies…imagine freedom.
