ALEXIS BURR
ILLUSTRATOR
“This piece is an ode to folks with gap toothed smiles or those of the crooked variety. There was a time that I hid my smile in fear of being made fun of. There are not many moments in a day that I’m not smiling or laughing so I had to get over that quickly. Gap is King!”
BLACK & BELOVED
“Black people are often only valued for what we can do and not for just being. I am beloved by God before I am laborer or savior or mule.”
