Art of TRASH
I am a Pop Artist born in the United States and currently residing in Montreal, Canada. My work is made through the lens of a neurodivergent black woman navigating a world littered with the consequences of our overconsumption. I create mixed-media objects from found materials to explore the whimsical beauty of the discarded. My approach is informed by resourcefulness and play, as I aim to imagine a world where the scrapped can be transformed into the fanciful.
