The afrofuturistic sculpture is situated within the genre’s celebration and reimagination of a Blackness that is not constructed against the backdrop of enslavement, colonization, and violence.

This work reappropriates Blackness from the psyches of western narratives and centres it in the realm of Black imagination and consciousness. The use of LEGO® as a sculptural medium further evokes a futuristic aesthetic to capture architectural forms and elements from the natural world, transcending the medium’s geometric form.
