I’m an artist of many mediums. More than just music. I realize that I (like many of us) hide parts of myself maybe as a form of protection. Maybe to maintain privacy and hold things close to my chest that I want to remain untainted. Maybe out of fear. Whatever the reason might be, I decided some time ago in a commitment to God that for the rest of my time here in the physical I’m not gonna hide.
"Blessed Are The Youth"
This is a deeply personal three-part collection I created to capture the resilience, hope, and inherent nobility of our youth. The child's eyes are the only colored element, glimmering gold against beautiful dark skin, because they symbolize the light of potential and promise within every black child even in the midst of this wicked world. The regal feathered wings emphasize purity and an innate strength and dignity that every black child has. No matter the surroundings, the youth are blessed with an inner radiance, powerful enough to light the world and with gifts that’ll carry them far above any adversities. - Scolla Fungwe
