Sistas

The artwork portrays two stylized figures from the shoulders up, facing forward with quiet dignity and presence.

The figure on the left has a medium brown skin tone and textured, multicolored hair crafted with sculptural, three-dimensional material. This vibrant hair becomes a crown of creativity and resilience, symbolizing the layered beauty of heritage. The figure wears a pink and white patterned top, radiating warmth and softness.

The figure on the right has a darker skin tone, short curly black hair, and a small white earring that gleams subtly. Their teal and black patterned clothing adds depth and balance, grounding the composition with cool tones.

The muted greenish-brown background provides an earthy foundation, allowing the figures’ colors and textures to stand out. Painted on wood, the piece carries natural warmth and rootedness, reinforcing the theme of heritage and strength.

Together, the two figures embody the essence of Sistas: distinct yet united, diverse yet connected. Their side-by-side presence reflects solidarity, mutual support, and the beauty of individuality within community.
