what kind of elder will I be?

This piece is part of a growing body of work called LEAVE HER ALONE.  This body of work was created from considering the impact of the images we idolize. Whether consciously or not, the images we idolize have a much deeper impact on our wellbeing. “what kind of elder will I be?” Is a piece and question that erupted out of witnessing the ongoing destruction of Mother Earth. All versions of me - from my child self, adult self, to my elder self - are connected through braids, using hair as a measurement of time and highlighting interconnectedness of generations across time and space.
