Artist Statement

Angelique Scott is a Caribbean-American artist, educator, and activist whose artistic practice is rooted in intergenerational traditions of care and craftsmanship. Drawing from Afro-diasporic material culture, she works primarily with clay, fiber (including hair, satin, and cotton), cowrie shells, and indigo to create both functional and decorative objects. Her work is grounded in Afrocentricity and Africana womanism as frameworks for embodied understanding.
