The substance of man is such that he has to satisfy the needs of life with all his senses.
His very being cries out for these senses to appropriate the true riches of life, the beauty of human relationships and dignity of Nature and Art, realized in striding toward a bright tomorrow...without a history, a culture, without creative art, inspiring to these senses, mankind stumbles in a chasm of despair and pessimism
My work takes shape around images and ideas that are centered within the vertex of a black experience.
A nitty-gritty ghetto experience resulting in contradictory emotions. Anguish, hope, love, despair, happiness, faith, lack-of-faith, dreams.
Stubbornly holding on to an elusive romantic belief that the people of this land cannot always be insensible to dictates of justice or deaf to the voice of humanity.
