They have toured across the country as a traveling musician. Providing illustrations for grassroots organizations and corporate entities that advocate for and uplift Black and Brown, Queer and Trans voices. Artist Statement: I make things because it’s how I talk back to the world, to my ancestors, to whoever’s still listening. Expression isn’t just decoration; it’s how I get heard. It’s how I leave notes in the margins of time. My voice is mine, sure, but it’s also a vessel. It carries Black, Queer, and Trans frustration, joy, messiness, and brilliance. I’m not here to clean it up for anyone. My work is a chorus of the living and the dead, the loud and the quiet. I want what I make to stand upright in the present, to speak plainly, and to grow old with a kind of shameless grace. #ArtistsForFoodJustice: Twelve Washington artists from Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) communities and marginalized identities interpret our monthly Meaning of Food themes through original digital artwork, premiering on the first day of each month.
