About me
I am an artist and scholar working with ceramics, collage, and text. By exploring plant life and botanical illustration, black intimacy, and storytelling, I interrogate history and libidinal economies of race and gender. Much of my work relies on the juxtaposition of forms, colors, references, images, plants and text that generate new meanings when placed together.
I published a book of collage poems written in French with Cases Rebelles, titled L’Amérique du Nord.
Working as an associate professor at Concordia University’s Simone de Beauvoir Institute, I teach and conduct research in the areas of black feminisms, queer theory, Haitian studies, and prison abolition. My scholarship has appeared in scholarly publications such as Small Axe, The Journal of Haitian Studies, The CLR James Journal (Special issue: Black Canadian Thought), and Tangence, in addition to other media sources like Canadian Art, Spirale, and Ricochet.
I am completing my first book, Disrupting Agency: Towards a Black Feminist Anarchism, which is forthcoming with Duke University Press.
