LAMENTATION
Lamentation is a proposed project set to debut at Burning Man Arts Festival in 2024. A reimagination of Michelangelo's Pietà, but with a Black Madonna and her infant child. The piece is meant to highlight the medical racism Black mothers and children face which leads to staggering mortality in the US healthcare system.
​
Lamentation will be constructed out of wood carved on the CNC and will remain unvarnished, allowing the piece to weather with age. The weathering a representation of the relentless, omnipresent destructive force of racism in America.
