Bonita
This artwork reveals the inseparable bond between humanity and the natural world. The figure, woven into roots, leaves, and flowing earth, is not merely placed in nature, it is nature. The intertwining represents harmony, dependence, and the undeniable truth that our survival is rooted in the health of the environment around us.The piece speaks to balance: how every breath we take, every drop of water we drink, and every harvest we gather is part of a larger cycle. When humans thrive, nature thrives; when nature is destroyed, humanity suffers the consequences.

Black Mona Lisa
This painting, “Black Mona Lisa”, powerfully reimagines the timeless aura of da Vinci’s
masterpiece through a distinctly African lens. At its core, it is not just a portrait; it is a statement.
The subject, a young Black woman with tightly braided hair and an uncompromising gaze,
embodies a regal strength and quiet defiance.
