Welcome to Our Yard
“Welcome to Our Yard” celebrates the unity among HBCU students while showcasing the diverse facets of our blackness. As an artist, I am committed to representing and celebrating black people through my work, recognizing the non-monolithic nature of our experiences. This artwork invites viewers to explore and connect with each character, encouraging conversations that reflect the rich diversity within the broader context of blackness. Through this piece, I aim to spotlight the vibrant and varied stories of the students on our campus.
