Drawings

My drawing are intuitive one-of-a-kind pieces. My drawings are vibrations/frequencies of human beings and celestial bodies. My recent series “Dogon/SiriusB/Ancestors” are interpretations of the energy of the star Sirius B, a star the Dogon people of Mali knew existed prior to the invention of western telescopes. These drawings pay homage to African astronomers and to the enslaved who “read the stars” to emancipate themselves.
