This artwork was created during a residency in Orquevaux, France, a very remote place in the French countryside. After traveling from Strasbourg for a hair service within a predominantly African community, I was inspired to create a city focusing the memory of the architecture of each place traveled and being connected through the braid of the diaspora. This includes the cityscape of Strasbourg, of Paris, of Chaumont, of Yaoundé, Cameroun and that of Orquevaux as a mind map drawn from memory.
