captive adornment series

I have known it to be true for a while.
That my style sources their own.
That my existence threatens their own.
That I embody almost everything that they love and want; and hate and fear.

Sources of joy found in my rebellion. Creativity found in my oppression.
I embody what I have transformed to be and whom I historically remain bonded to.

The Black body living (beautifully) in exile.
