In her artistic journey, Erica employs photography as a powerful tool to
confront her personal traumas, navigate mental health challenges, and
embark on a gradual exploration of her sexuality. Through the artful
integration of her photographs into digital collages, she constructs
captivating presentations that blend elements of ancestry and futurism.
This combination drives her to delve into the realms of afro-surrealism
and incorporate afro-futurist elements into her work. Erica intentionally
centers her focus on common stereotypical black woman tropes,
fearlessly embracing them even when they are deemed as negative
traits.
