“Erasure” is a powerful acrylic abstract that confronts the deliberate omission of Black historical contributions from dominant cultural narratives. Layered strokes of deep onyx, turquoise and gold fight their way through a wash of white symbolizing the centuries of intellectual, artistic, and societal innovation by Black people that are being buried or overwritten. Scraped textures and ghostlike silhouettes evoke erased names and fragmented legacies, while flashes of gold reflect our royal heritage enduring in brilliance and resistance.

The composition feels simultaneously disoriented and defiant: museum-like structures fade into abstraction, textbooks appear torn or blank, and sweeping marks mimic the act of redaction. We are unignorable—speaking to a truth that refuses to stay hidden. Erasure mourns the theft of legacy, but truth always wins.
