Matriarch: Legacy in Triptych

Across three vertical panels, a seated Black figure appears above a weathered wooden house, with a small figure visible in its doorway. Enlarged portrait forms and blocks of text overlap the scene; orange and green at left shift to cool blue in the center and electric blue with orange at right. I wanted the three panels to hold a tension between portrait, text, and place. I repeated the seated figure across shifting color fields and layered the words over a larger face, then anchored each panel with the house below. A detail that may be easy to miss is the small figure in the doorway, giving the building its own human presence.
