Exploring the topics of liminality, diaspora, afro-futurism, third space and alternate reality through visual expirementation. Islands in the Atlantic ocean were explored using satelite imagery, retracing and forming connections between the worlds. To explore the submerged environment,  imagery was created using clay and rocks, exploring the submerged environment of Atlanteans and how culture affects built environments.
