Within this book of cloth cyanotypes, I've created a dreamlike map of my journey through black girlhood, and these pages serve as a bridge to my present experience. You’ll find journal entries from the 5th grade, family scrapbook photographs, passing thoughts, music lyrics, and images I took between 2014 and 2019. I wanted to re-contextualize these artifacts by exposing them to light, and binding the timeline with thread.
