Mixed media sculpture with custom-designed 3D printed form, removable magnetic afro pick, found materials, hand-finishing, and light interaction; 26.5x10x12inches
This mixed media sculpture uses a custom-designed 3D printed bust form, found materials, hand-finishing, subtle light interaction, and removable magnetic afro picks to explore Black memory, ritual, speculative imagination, and preservation. The afro picks act as both cultural markers and transmission devices, transforming the sculpture into an archival presence that feels contemporary, ancestral, and responsive. Through technology, touch, and accumulated material history, the work considers how memory can be carried, altered, and reactivated across time.
