This series reimagines classical religious iconography with feminist irreverence and queer irony. Drawing from Mannerist and Black Madonna traditions, these works fuse sacred motifs with pop culture and subversion.
Through humor, color, and visual mash-ups, they challenge narratives of purity, gender, and the control of bodies. They ask: what does holiness look like when it is queer, wounded, and joyful?
