"Pieces of Her" is a striking Afrocentric sculpture that pays homage to the timeless beauty, strength, and cultural significance of African heritage. The hollow mold, adorned with traditional Bantu knots, evokes the essence of ancestral traditions while embodying the modern reinterpretation of identity.
The hollow nature of the piece represents the unseen layers of a woman’s story—the experiences, struggles, and triumphs that shape her essence beyond what is visible. The absence of a canvas emphasizes the boundless nature of her identity, unconfined by structure or convention.
Rendered in all black, "Pieces of Her" exudes depth, elegance, and timelessness, celebrating the enduring impact of African culture and the resilience it inspires. This piece invites viewers to reflect on the fragments of heritage, strength, and identity that come together to form the whole of who we are.
