My work addresses and explores my personal experiences as an African American male living with Sickle Cell Anemia. Withincell in environments that depict the internal states of being that I’ve experienced throughout my lifetime. I explore abstract realms such as uncertainty, desire, longing, faith, perseverance, structure/lack of structure, fragility, and conflict through the process of painting. Each painting is created in search of self-discovery, surveying past experiences in an attempt to greater understand the internal entity and its purpose within myself and the world. I question how the traumatic pain, moments of loneliness, and desire for better days shaped me not only as an African American male living with a blood disorder but as an artist as well.
