I am an Afro-Latinx Queer Femme and I love creating work that reflects my love of natural materials and sustainable practices that have been practiced by BIPOC people for generations. I make gemstone shakers and use cotton African wax prints in my wall art as well as garden and plant items I upcycle into home decor. I love looking at materials and giving them new life or re-imagining the ways in which markers of the diaspora can be incorporated into people’s homes. I get a lot of inspiration from my dreams to create work people can engage with their senses with. I believe art should be accessible to all and I try to incorporate that from production to pricing. My goal with creating home decor items and accessories is to make things that last but also have a story behind them.
