this is me showing you my ass self-timer nude works for scale also request a print for your grandparents <3

I moved from south Atlanta to the fourth ward historic district living in an old racist cotton dock turned asbestos lofts for about a year. 
I painted these walls knowing I wouldn't be in that loft forever, and that I couldn't take the works with me. Another great exercise in conceptualizing death via paint. 
I found immense solace and even comfort in the idea of being disowned by my artwork. also found that I really do create just for me and only me. ironic, considering the result. 
I love the idea of people having a relationship with the living walls, external of me as a helicopter dance mom.

May 17, 2022. Old Fourth Ward, Atlanta.

I wonder if I'd be saying any of this if we didn't have the camera. 

I can give you the address if you'd like to knock on the door with me and we can see what we can do. lol

I painted what I felt. unconsciously focused on getting out of my own way. struggling with not feeling completely welcome, too. in an intense state of gnosis, I painted a portal on my room's wall before unpacking anything.

  claustrophobic. 

In need of more than a window to breathe. I'd find that out pretty quick.

Ya boy didn't have windows also if anyone wants one of these guys in their home I'd be so down mhm

Prints are available depending on the demand of sizes. 

But fr though, commission me to paint similar shit in your home
