First Friday in Downtown Macon, GA is a monthly event that occurs on the first Friday of each month. It’s a day where all of the art galleries open their doors (+ open container is allowed 💃🥂 ) & celebrate the city's community spirit and vibrant downtown scene, filled with activities like live music, art exhibitions, food vendors, and more.
For this upcoming 1st Friday, I am honored to work with the incredible Hazel Caldwell & Bradley Lenz of Green Light Gallery on this magnificent exhibition.

I created this series not only for women with painful cycles, to turn their period into their superpower, but for all people in pain.
Each piece in this collection is crafted with love and care, as I have actually ‘lived’ the artwork, creating a piece of art for each phase that I live through, so each piece has a story behind it.
The series features new works as well as pieces from my ongoing 'Every Phase' series, and the art + writing reveals how to biohack and leverage the energy of each of the phases in your life.
The blue collection will feature original Cyanotype works made with water and the sun as my 'darkroom'.
The cyanotype,
which is also known as ferroprussiate, blueprint, or sun-print is a very old and simple form of photography employing the organic aspects of light, glass (or a negative), and time.
It is one of my favorite camera-less photographic techniques I learned when I first started learning about photography.
And very fitting, being that the first woman, Anna Atkins, to ever make a photograph, made a book of cyanotypes.
The show will run the whole month of June, and I look forward to seeing you all for the opening on 6/6.
