Philosophy

I believe that art is for all people, everyone is an artist, and through this realization has the power to create the world they wish to see. My practice is used to initiate positive social change while exploring themes of identity, connectivity, community, and individuality. I am inspired by the complexity of the African-American experience and how society values that experience. As the son of a Black mother from Pittsburgh and an Afro-Guyananese father my work seeks to to give visibility to the triple consciousness of my Black, Guyanese, and African identities.
