‘The Fold’
96” x 60”, Acrylic paint, Markers
In The Fold, I capture the chaos of a tidal wave consuming New York Harbor, symbolizing upheaval and transformation. The Statue of Liberty tilts on its side, reflecting shifting perspectives and the challenges we face as a society. Amidst the turbulence, six surfing wolves embody resilience, adaptability, and a primal connection to nature, their glowing eyes serving as beacons of hope. This 88”x64” acrylic painting explores themes of unity, strength, and the power of perspective in uncertain times. Through this piece, I invite viewers to reflect on adversity, togetherness, and the ever-evolving nature of our collective experience.

‘Together Light’
14” x 11”, ink on archival paper
Together Light is a reflection on unity and compassion, inspired by the pages of my Black Book. The artwork depicts the Statue of Liberty’s hand holding the torch, with LOVE engraved on its fingertips, symbolizing the core values of hope and togetherness. The torch’s radiant glow represents the transformative power of love, illuminating the path toward a brighter future. Through this piece, I invite viewers to reflect on the importance of standing together and embracing the light we create when united.
