Me for @thefatzine, full article coming soon 💕 S/o to @natalie_czyzyk for these beautiful photos . . . . There was a time when I didn’t like my body, I used clothing as a means to cover up. To hide. But once I turned 17, it was over! I fell in love with myself. No one could tell me a thing. My energy was different, and I showed skin any chance I could. That teenage girl made me the woman I am today. She was the reason why I makes sure that Fat black and queer people are at the forefront of my work. That little girl that had close to no representation made sure she created work for people who weren’t being represented. I love that so much about what I do, my art is intentional and it’s for people who look like me. I also remind myself that I’m art. I spend alot of time making people look beautiful. But I too am beautiful and worthy of being photographed in a positive light. My body is beautiful and it’s art. I will forever treat it as such. 💕🖼
