A Memorial For My Innocence Because I Was Not Allowed To Bury It

Solo Exhibtion

This body of work awakens memories of childhood and innocence with boundless beauty and transparency. It transcends time and place like a hidden treasure awaiting rediscovery. Desire has the unique ability to present windows to our past by reminding us of seemingly simpler times, and yet at the same moment, she presents reflections on moments of past childhood trauma compartmentalized. In a world where innocence reigns supreme, what does that look like to those who lost theirs? Vaniecia is a master storyteller. She weaves nostalgia and hope, capturing fleeting moments of childhood frozen in time, as she encapsulates her imagery within the confines of small resin squares adorned with vintage lace.
