Mind of My Mind depicts a different view of the same figure from Meet Me on the Other Side. This time, the figure has revealed their full length to us. Their torso is long and full, resembling a snake, fully decorated in intricate patterns of glitter and mica. They rest in the tendrils of the seagrass, illuminated by the sparkling blue waters. This figure represents a significant deity figure who occupies two different worlds. The title references Octavia Butler’s 1977 novel of the same name. Central themes in the work include telepathy, emotional connection, and ancient mystical powers that connect African ancestors with their diasporic descendants. Their hair exists as a technology, antennae, to connect and transmit information. Perhaps they are twins, siblings, or dual sides of the same being.
