Join Monica in the gallery on Saturday, July 19 at 1pm for Myths & Stories about "Jaybird & the Queen of Hearts."

“Biomythography” is a term coined by Audre Lord defined as “combining elements of history, biography and myth” within literature. My exploration of this idea is a continuation of the ongoing series of paintings, collages and stories in my Mythical Memory series. This body of work combines Afro-surrealism, abstraction, and elements of pop art aesthetics. This overlap and intersection of genres is used to create a dialogue around the abstract qualities of time and memory, the liminality of the dream space and the way in which personal narratives can create a mythology. Time and memory are components of history. The mythology enters as the realm where the dream space and memory coincide. Love is the enduring force that weaves it all together.

Exhibition dates: July 3 - 25, 2025
