When I told my partner about the ‘Heart and Soul ‘ project, he immediately connected me with his friend Schera. He raved about how cool she is and how he thought we would get along. He was not wrong. As soon as Schera walked up, I felt like I was hanging with a life long friend. We walked around Covington discussing life and love. We went deep, fast. I appreciate her opening up to me. Schera is an attorney and Rugby player, amongst many other things. Her power felt good to be around, I can’t wait to hang with her again someday.

Coming September 2020, ‘Heart and Soul’ is a photo installation project that was created to elevate the voices of some of Cincinnati’s amazing Black Womxn. Commisioned by Artworks and funded by FotoFocus I worked with 8 youth apprentices to make mini murals created with painted photos that will be wheat pasted on Black Owned businesses around Cincinnati.
