SHINING REVELRY

An Alter Book Set

Shining Revelry is a celebration of ancestral adornment and the radiant beauty found in resistance. This artist book set honors my enslaved ancestors, whose bodies carried the weight of labor yet also the shimmer of love and survival. Through acts of embellishment, gesture, and reverence, I reimagine adornment as both a shield and a sanctuary. In their resistance, there is love; in their endurance, a brilliance that refuses to dim. Shining Revelry is my offering to that light, a testament to the sacred joy that persists even in the face of bondage.
