COWBOYHOOD centers the Black-American cowboy to explore all that is between  “40 acres and a mule,” Eadweard Muybridge’s The Horse in Motion, and reimaginings of Black determinism.
 
Photographs taken over the course of six months in Texas, Oklahoma, and Connecticut. Shot on B&W 120 and 35mm films. Displayed in the gallery as 16 gelatin silver prints (16x20”) mounted with 96 horseshoe nails.

2026, year of the horse.

Senior Thesis project at Wesleyan University. Published in the Spring 2026 Print Issue of Harvard Art Journal [view]
