Seattle Central College Installation | Acrylic and mixed media on plywood

This piece depicts a young girl wrapped in the majestic hues of her heritage and lovingly supported by her ancestors guiding her journey. Manongi is an homage to the legacy of the Seattle Central College Oriental Student Union whose leadership and advocacy work in 1971 had a lasting impact on the lives of students of color ever since.
