This original artwork was chosen to be exhibited at the Chicago Arts and Technology Center Black History Month 2026 Exhibit.
An original 16×20 watercolor of a Black mother holding her baby in a 1950s maternal clinic. Set against a period medical interior, the work reflects the historical realities of Black motherhood—where care, survival, and love existed alongside systemic inequities in maternal health. The painting honors maternal strength, cultural continuity, and the enduring bond between mother and child within a context shaped by resilience and lived experience.
