As a visual artist rooted in Brooklyn but deeply inspired by global narratives of self-expression, I reflect on the transformative power of image-making. In this piece, I explore the complex layers behind a 2019 photo series from Dali—where fashion, identity, and cultural context collide. This is not just about aesthetics; it’s a meditation on who gets to be seen, how they are seen, and what freedom looks like when captured through the lens of personal truth. Let’s talk about beauty that resists objectification.

As a visual artist raised between Brooklyn’s underground scenes and Harlem’s poetry circles, I’ve spent years questioning who gets to define beauty—and who gets to own their body. This piece is not about spectacle, but sovereignty. Through intimate portraits that challenge conventional eroticism, I explore how reclaiming my image became an act of quiet rebellion. It’s not just about nudity—it’s about voice, permission, and the radical honesty of being seen on your own terms.

As a visual artist who grew up between African rhythms and New York silence, I’ve always believed that the body is not an object to be consumed—but a story to be told. This piece reflects on the quiet power of self-representation, especially when it comes to women and non-binary bodies in intimate spaces. It’s not about exhibitionism; it’s about sovereignty. In a world obsessed with gaze, we must ask: Who holds the lens? And who decides what is beautiful?

As a visual artist who grew up between Harlem poetry circles and Brooklyn’s underground galleries, I’ve spent years questioning how women are seen—and how we see ourselves. This piece reflects on a moment when a seemingly ‘vanilla’ image of intimacy sparked a deeper conversation about autonomy, beauty, and the quiet rebellion of being present. Through my lens, even pink sleepwear becomes a symbol of sovereignty—not performance, but presence.
