“'She Wears Her Ancestors' is a tribute to those who came before me, whose strength, stories, and dreams live on through my art. It is about the power of inheritance, not only of blood but of creativity, memory, and spirit. It reminds us that who we are is shaped by those who walked before us, even if we do not know all their names. The work invites viewers to reflect on the pride and traditions we carry, and how these live on in what we create. The figure does not stand alone—she carries a legacy and wears it with honor. Through every line and stroke, I remember and give thanks. This painting is a celebration of where I come from, a reminder that my creativity is not mine alone but a gift passed down, a shared story, a living memory." - Chrystabel Dzandu
