When was the last time you let yourself cry?

Some people hold it together so long they forget they're allowed to stop. Tears Flowing catches the face after the hiding is over, when grief finally gets to move.

Museum-quality aluminum, limited to one collector, from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What came out of your culture that you watched someone else profit from?

Cultures can be shared. Credit for where they come from shouldn't be erased. Credit Where Credit Is Due puts the braids up front. They carry a history tied to Black culture, and the piece sits with what happens when that culture gets borrowed and its name gets left behind.

Who told you they loved you and didn't mean it?

The same mouth that says I love you can say anything. Sometimes in the same breath. Love and Lies keeps tenderness and deceit on the same face, and that's what makes it hard to sit with.

It's a 24 × 36 work on aluminum, limited to one collector, from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What have you been through that your face doesn't show?

Some people go through enough to fall apart and stay still anyway. Nobody claps for that kind of calm because nobody sees what it costs. Unshaken Reflection is that face. The calm is the strength.

It's a 24 × 36 work on aluminum, limited to one collector, from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What old version of you are you ready to let go of?

Growth looks like loss, right up until it doesn't. Shedding is about the point where the old version has to come off, even before the new one feels familiar. What's underneath finally gets room to breathe.

It's a 24 × 36 one-of-one on aluminum from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What few seconds changed your whole life?

A whole life turns on a handful of seconds. Seconds stays with the instant just before everything changes. It's the part we usually understand only after it's already gone.

Who gets to see the real you?

Everyone has a second face. Few will show it. Two-Faced puts the self we present beside the self we protect. Neither one is treated as the lie. They're two parts of the same person.

It's a 24 × 36 one-of-one on aluminum from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What gets louder for you at 2 AM?

Nobody lies to themselves at 2 AM. That's the hour when the noise drops out and whatever you've been avoiding gets louder. 2:00 AM is about that face, the one that shows up when there's nobody left to perform for.

It's a 24 × 36 one-of-one framed work from Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen.

What are you done apologizing for?

Your face tells the whole story before you say a word. Every person, place, loss, win and mistake leaves something behind. Love Your Face is about carrying all of it without apologizing for what it made visible.

It's the piece at the center of Unapologetic Faces: The Cost of Being Seen, a 24 × 36 one-of-one framed work.
