"Masquerade cloth is an encyclopedia of Spirit and the community. I paint to preserve the stories held in every thread echoes of dance, song, and ceremony. By translating textile into texture, I invite viewers to enter the weave: a space where colour moves like drums and patterns speaks of our shared past".
