After nine months, Project 2020, the collaborative artists' book project I worked on with 8 Black women artists is complete! The works are amazing. My book, Retablos of Resistance is pictured here. Over the course of the nine months, in addition to the twin tragedies of the pandemic and race-based violence, my mother lost her battle with dementia and died in November 2020. Working with the artists on this project was healing for me.
In addition to the collaborative book I made, I was inspired to create an exquisite corpse game/book about my connection to my mother, Mother|Daughter Nexus.
