- Why did you create this work?
I wanted to highlight a Black woman whose artistry shapes and inspires. Solange’s work moves beyond music; her visuals, concepts, and storytelling push creative boundaries in ways that feel both deeply personal and culturally significant.
To honor that, I created a vintage-inspired storybook that hold illustrations of some of Solange’s beautifully artistic visuals. This is the cover of the book. - How were your illustrations used?
It was shared on my Instagram page (@amacieforever) in celebration of Black History Month as a digital book. It is also included in my web portfolio. - What materials and techniques did you use?
