“Jamaul’s work presents beautiful stylized drawings that depict representations of black women being free. Solely holding their own ground in their beauty, the radiance in their facial features is juxtapositioned next to concrete, often seen as cold and bare. However, the soft iridescent sky creates an electromagnetic connection, echoing the women’s radiance.  The brilliant creative radiance of Jessie Montgomery, herself a BIPOC composer, carries this echo further.  And finally, Megumi stands alone in all of her strength and glory, surrounded by natural beauty and nothing but musical tones floating through the air. Gracefully holding her own.”

“Mikaela’s collection of art feels organic, inspired by components of nature, and she uses a variety of practices to represent her vision. Her current collection’s tight connection is her use of contrast and shape, sometimes defined clearly and precisely but also with a touch of the obscure. Her work is paired with Montgomery’s Rhapsody for its grounded connection to nature.  Consider her delicately drawn image of the butterfly alongside Montgomery’s open, pure, sound world. You can imagine this little insect floating freely through the air as each note holds sonic space.”
