What a fabulous opening of the new CODE GIRL exhibition yesterday from the in Newburgh, NY!!

Eight portraits from my Everyday Blackness project are being shown and I did a book-signing as part of the opening celebrations, along with fellow NJ photo artist and author .donnabassin!

Such a beautiful day meeting many of the artists and visitors!

“Your portraits bring forward a powerful and nuanced representation of lived experience, and we are honored to include your work in the exhibition. Your presence and this extension of your work will offer a meaningful opportunity for engagement within the exhibition.”
