“Mixed Feelings” is a visual series that captures the emotional complexity of Black womanhood strength, softness, pride, visibility and invisibility. Each portrait in this series holds the gaze of its subject with quiet defiance, inviting the viewer to pause, reflect, and feel. In a world that often demands emotional clarity or neat narratives, Mixed Feelings celebrates complexity. It affirms that contradiction is not confusion but depth. That beauty, identity, and emotion can coexist in layered, unapologetic form.
