About the Collection

This powerful artwork is a thought-provoking commentary on the complex relationship between Hip Hop culture and the women who grew up within it. The piece invites the viewer to reflect on the ways in which Hip Hop's lyrics and messages can both empower and degrade, often simultaneously.

Through a vibrant and dynamic visual language, the artist explores the tension between hip-hop’s ability to uplift and inspire, while also perpetuating harmful stereotypes and misogyny.



The artwork is a testament to the resilience and strength of women who have been shaped by Hip Hop culture, and a celebration of their ability to transform adversity into empowerment.

Ultimately, "Consuming Culture" is a powerful call to awareness, encouraging us to consider the ways in which the media we consume can both reflect and shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
