A striking portrait of an elegant Afro-futuristic woman clad in a gown crafted from shimmering beads, with cascading strings of luminescent pearls draped across her shoulders and neck. Her presence is regal, evoking images of a mythical pearl queen, embodying the grace of Ororo Munroe and the timeless beauty of Maria Borges. Her attire—a harmonious blend of intricate beadwork and radiant pearls—draws inspiration from the iconic works of Carrie Mae Weems and Gordon Parks. Her gaze is captivating, reflecting strength and serenity, set against a world where culture and futurism coalesce, reminiscent of a photograph by Lily Delissa Joseph.
