👑THE KING 👑
Did you know there were this MANY types of Airforce 1s? But there's nothing like the stunning and simple carefully crafted details of white Air Force 1s😍

When I found out the Sneakers Unboxed exhibition was on my list to visit I was so excited!!👟 An entire space devoted to exploring the cultural impact trainer's have had, how they've taken over the fashion industry and become transformative in how we see ourselves, creating communities and identities and so much more!🥳 Check out my Student Art Pass highlight to see more of this stunning museum! #StudentArtPass @studentartpass #LetsGoMuseumTripping #Ad

🥰✨Thank you @blackballaduk for helping me tell my story 💕 I haven't written in while as I focused on other art forms, however, writing is a part of myself that has been with me the longest and the art form I loved the most, so it feels good to be back at it again👩🏾‍💻. What I write I want to come from the heart and putting my experiences into words is a form of therapy for me.

Writing this helped put so many emotions on paper and I knew Black Ballad was the place for it to call home🏡 I hope this story helps anyone moving, entering spaces where they can finally be who they want and need to be and just anyone starting a new chapter in life, this one's for you and also my chosen fam that helped me love every aspect of myself society tried to make me hate🏳️‍🌈💜 to read check out the link in my bio

🍁“You cannot be what you do not see.” this

🍁“You cannot be what you do not see.” this is the quote that came across my mind while inside the @hornimanmuseumgardens , I could feel my inner child craving every piece, every collection and exhibition carefully curated to make us all feel like we were a part of the museum, like we had made it ourselves.

🇳🇬Being Nigerian was celebrated, being Black was celebrated, I felt so safe as Iexplored. My favourite being An Ode to Afrosurrealism by @_adamajalloh and @mai_ye , immortalizing the dimensions of Blackness, softness and passion, we need more generations to witness its beauty. A door opened for us, a space just for us to tell what we needed and wanted to tell .

👩🏾‍🎨For a lot of Black people you will enter galleries and see hundreds of art that does not tell your story, that doesn’t acknowledge your existence, your history, just everything wonderful about you. It’s so important to remember you deserve to be seen and shown, frames and frames of your stunning complexion. Leaving the museum at the end of the day was bittersweet but I knew I’d return one day, bringing family and friends that needed to also experience this magical day.😍 #MuseumTripping @studentartpass #weareartful
