These dimensional quilts are inspired by the Bakongo Cosmogram, exploring what happens when a symbol moves beyond a flat image and becomes a physical form. By transforming a diagram discussed by Kimbwandende Kia Bunseki Fu-Kiau into a three-dimensional structure, the work reflects ideas of movement, balance, and the connection between the spiritual and physical worlds.

Spirit in Motion- Symbolism This quilt is inspired by the diamond and cross variation of the Bakongo Cosmogram, exploring ideas of ancestral presence, cyclical time, and spiritual connection.

The work reflects how dreams can become a space for memory, connection, and reunion with ancestors.

Spirit in Motion - Movement
Movement plays a central role in many African diasporic spiritual traditions. Inspired by the movement of the Ring Shout, a ritual of singing, clapping and circular movement. This work reflects the rhythm and energy of bodies moving counterclockwise in a circle. Radial patterns, mirrored forms and shifting color create a sene of vibration, flow and connection.
