THE HEALING SERIES

This series of paintings is explained here. Correction: It's blueBIRD and not blue jay LoL! #Nerves #BirdNamesMatter

Hello and thank YOU so much for visiting and for considering us! The project that I am currently working on that I am most proud of, is a series of four paintings about healing. In my community, therapy and other healing interventions are still very much stigmatized. There is so much trauma that black women especially carry, not only from childhood and relationship injuries, but also from the intersectionality of racism and sexism. I want to use both my art and my art practice to normalize healing. The proposal that I've created will use art to help youth with social/emotional learning. The video goes into further explanation. Thanks again!
