Artwork I submitted to be featured in gal-dem magazine’s second print issue themed around ‘Home’. Sold here.
‘The Home Issue’ features content centered around the experiences of what home means to women of colour, both in a personal and a political sense.’
These three pieces are self-initiated and reference a few movies that impacted me deeply as a moody teen, but that also (retrospectively speaking) felt slightly inaccessible, and I think had some negative impact on my sense of self-worth via the lack of diverse representation. (Although obvs I still found some comfort in these films). With these images, I wanted to subvert some of those implied rules of ‘cult’ movies and center woc as Criterion Collection approved. (not that we need permission)
