- material and her unique perspective, Daisy’s work
- subverts traditional narratives and amplifies voices that
- lie beyond the boundaries of the mainstream.
- Rejecting the presumed objectivity of the camera,
- she embraces her own gaze as a tool for uncovering
- hidden truths, while reimagining the world around her.
- Through continuous self reflection and cultural critique,
- she aimsto provoke thought and emotion in response to
- her work, inviting viewers to confront their own biases
- and the positions from which they view the world.
Daisy’s work serves as a testament to the
- resilience of Blackness, celebrating its extraordinary
- ability to shape-shift and mutate in order to survive
- within systems of oppression. She offers us a chance to
- bear witness to these moments of survival, drawing
- attention to the rare moments of transcendence
- obtained by a small few.
