”SEPARATE BUT EQUAL” WAS THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT DECISION IN THE FAMOUS PLESSY V. FERGUSON (1896) CASE.  THE LEGAL DOCTRINE INFAMOUSLY STATED THAT BLACKS AND WHITES WERE TO BE SEPARATE IN THE FORM OF PUBLIC SPACES BUT WERE TO BE CONSIDERED EQUAL – AFTER 300 YEARS OF SLAVERY, EQUAL WAS AN OVER-REACH. 

​​

I TITLED THIS COLLECTION WITH NO SPACES BECAUSE IN SOCIETY THERE REALLY IS NO SEPARATION, WE ARE FORCED TOGETHER IN UNHARMONIOUS FASHION AND I WANTED THE TITLE TO REFLECT THAT.

​

WITH THIS COLLECTION, I HOPE TO SHED LIGHT ON HOW CLOSE THE PAST IS, IF WE DON'T CHANGE.
