Back in May I embarked on a journey of firsts: My first artist residency, the first time being featured in a documentary and the first chance, in my 39 years on this earth, to be given an opportunity to share my story/lived experience as a neurodivergent Black woman living with cerebral palsy, inspire and engage youth, as well as advocate and represent for the BIPOC disabled community in an educational setting.

I met so many amazing people on this journey, and made life-long friends; from the fellow wingspan artists, the amazing teachers engaging youth across in Canada, and the Wingspan team members who were pivotal in making the Wingspan in Schools program possible.

Tonight is the UBC premiere of this documentary, Wings Rising and, although unfortunately the Toronto Artist, teachers and students couldn't be there to represent in person, please know we are rooting for you in the virtual audience!

Another way I wanted to represent in the virtual space is with a little glimpse into the Wingspan Toronto AiR experience!

I really wish I had found out about this event with enough time to properly promote and share with friends, family, and community, especially those in BC, but better late than never as they say 🤷🏿‍♀️😅

Thank you to all involved for an unforgettable experience.

Last chance to check out & 's at . The gallery is open until 5pm today. Thank you to all who came out to support the artist talks, celebration events and the exhibition as a whole! The last three months have been such an amazing experience and I am truly humbled and filled with so much gratitude that my first solo exhibition has been so well received and supported by so many!

And a BIG big thanks to these amazing organizations, publications and community hubs within the disability, arts and culture community for their ongoing support to so many emerging disabled artists of colour such as myself.

An excerpt about this talk:

"Utilizing photography and lens-based art practices as her mediums, Felicia delicately explores the intricate balance of healing amidst loss and joy in speculation of futurity within community. Joining her is Sean Lee (he/they), Director of Programming at Tangled Art + Disability, and Victoria Bacnis (she/they), Founder and Creative Director of Unboxing Accessibility for a post-talk conversation that ventures into the realms of access, survival, and disability futurity."

Happy International Day of Persons with Disabilities! (Dec 03)

On this day, I wanted to share with you
[IN]BLOOM: Golden Hour / Glitch, a recent photo-based work created for & Transit As A Canvas initiative, celebrating BIPOC disabled artists!

This work is a dyptich that explores the interplay
between serenity and environmental chaos.

An excerpt from the artist statement:

"Symbolic imagery within the photo collage itself serves to convey a message of
radical self-love, self-acceptance and cultivating a sense of inner peace amidst
the outer chaos.
..the subject wears a t-shirt adorned with a photo of his child self. This
symbolizes the importance of honouring and protecting our inner child; the
seedling from which the flower, a fully realized and embraced sense of self,
blooms. "

As a neurodivergent artist living with Cerebral Palsy, it is important to me that my work serves to empower, to inspire and to cultivate a sense of self-love and self-acceptance... This work is no exception. It is an honour to have my work included in this initiative, and as you come across it in your travels I hope it brightens up your commute.
