Textile Art

I am an emerging textile artist that practices embroidery, crochet, knitting, weaving, and bookbinding.

As part of the diaspora, my art is a connection to my ancestors. Working with textiles allows me to find ease and feel at home in a way unparalleled by other artistic mediums. To me, there is something so sacred about the textures, meditation, and slowness involved with textile arts. Additionally, I enjoy making art that is tiny, cozy, and/or affirming. Thank you for witnessing the care I bring to every piece.

I am currently closed to trades and commissions. 

I also offer art workshops.
