An artist that influenced me in making this piece was Stacey Byer. She is an artist from Grenada, whose work is largely inspired by her culture. I resonated with the themes of love and familiarity she worked with and I wanted to draw something familiar to me. Hence, I drew me portrayed with a friend, with inspiration taken from a moment in Summer that was filled with happiness and joy.
This piece received an Honorable Mention from the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards.

Family Flows

December 2018
The goal of this piece was to portray my family abstractly. My household has always been full of energy, and I wanted to capture that. I used watercolor and acrylic paint to create a scene of movement, among the blobs of color, that were supposed to represent various family members.

Paper Butterfly
This piece is entirely made using chiaroscuro, which makes use of dramatic contrasts of light and dark to get a 3D effect. It is only a simple piece, but I would love to take on greater challenges using chiaroscuro.

Hidden Narratives
Hidden Narratives is a short film I created as extension of my IB HL piece that I choreographed for Dance Concert. I also made it in honor of National Black Maternal Health Week to raise awareness about the issues that Black mothers face. - Miah Prescod, Class of 2020

It is very durable and makes food taste so much better! It is extremely heavy, but very worth it because it is pretty.

Layers of the Mind (Mixed Media)
Dimensions: 60.96 x 43 cm
December 2018
The goal of this piece was to address the structure of the mind, and what it means to be secure with oneself and surroundings. I used a variety of materials (yarn, photographs, plastic, etc...) to create tension within the piece.
This piece received a New York Regional Gold Key Award from the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards.

May 2019
For this piece, I was inspired by Zanele Muholi’s activism work displayed through her photography and documentaries. The eyes on the subject are white; My intent was for the viewer to see past the subject as a particular person and look deeper into what it means to be a black woman. I used intricate patterns in the background to display the beauty black womxn bring to the world.
