Drips of Excess (2026)

"Drips of Excess" is a striking mixed media piece that boldly explores themes of opulence and unapologetic richness. A commanding silhouette of a woman emerges from a vibrant, layered background, her presence amplified by luxurious adornments. The artwork is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship, blending acrylics with shimmering gold leaf that deliberately drips down the figure's torso. Hand-applied vertical folds and metallic foil add striking dimensional movement to her dress, while gems adorn her chest and catch the light. A sharply defined silver profile stands out against the textured spray-painted backdrop, creating a captivating visual narrative. This large-scale work draws inspiration from Caribbean and African diaspora aesthetics, infusing them with contemporary mixed-media techniques. It’s a portrait that refuses to be subtle, celebrating abundance as strength and cultural pride.
