A Colored Woman’s Subjective Wearable Reflections on an Imperialist White-Supremacist Capitalist Patriarchy or How I Learned to Love

1.  an interpretation of black culture and history, using fashion, dress, and body.

2.  6 custom-made, originally designed pieces.*

3.  a commentary on present day consumer culture and the forces that shape(d) it.

4.  a 365 day exercise in self-portrait photography.

The challenge I’ve given myself is to wear six items of clothing for a year, and take a picture of myself everyday during this time period.

*One pair of pants, one shirts, one dress, one sweater, one vest and one coat to be exact.  These items will constitute the whole of artist’s wardrobe for a one year period.  Undergarments (underwear, etc.), accessories (hats and headcoverings, winter necessities) and jewelry will also be specially designed and custom produced.
