Sunshower

The subject finds reprieve in a rain storm by instead using water to wash their hair. I wanted this piece to both honor Black hair as an expression of autonomy, as well as to use water as a transformative symbol: both the challenging storm, and as something that cleanses, strengthens, refreshes.
The light peaking out from the rain clouds forms a halo around the subject. Their peace, their body, and their care for their body shines like a guiding light.
