Description
Introduction:
Introducing “Sugar Skull Princess,” a powerful and vibrant figurative expressionist piece by Dr. Stacey Denise. This open edition art print, crafted on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Metallic Fine Art Paper, is the first in a trilogy celebrating strong women of the African Diaspora. Blending the aesthetic of Día de los Muertos with the rich colors of New Orleans Mardi Gras, this artwork pays homage to the enduring tradition of ancestral honor carried across the world through the African Diaspora.
Artwork Why:
“‘Sugar Skull Princess’ is the opening chapter in a vibrant trilogy celebrating womanhood’s multifaceted strength, particularly focusing on the resilience and beauty of women from the African Diaspora. This piece honors the indomitable spirit of our ancestors and the traditions that have survived and evolved through centuries of displacement and cultural exchange. By using a color palette inspired by New Orleans Mardi Gras, I’ve sought to capture the vibrancy of African-influenced cultures in the Americas. The sugar skull motif, borrowed from Día de los Muertos, serves as a powerful symbol of how we keep our ancestors alive through remembrance and celebration. This artwork is a testament to the resilience, beauty, and cultural richness that has flourished despite historical adversities.” — Dr. Stacey Denise
