Inspired by my Harlem Series, created during my residency on Governors Island, this is a depiction of a Southern songstress inspired by Billie Holiday to migrate to Harlem for an opportunity to sing in the Apollo. The Harlem series was created to pay homage to celebrating 100 Years of the Harlem Renaissance. Incorporating vintage images while creating modern images of African Americans who migrated to Harlem from other parts of the world.
