Ocular Proof

Ocular Proof is a project documenting how I act on places and they act on me. It follows in the tradition of Black women travelers throughout history who journeyed across the globe, often returning to where they were from with ocular proof¹ that was gathered via personal accounts of what they saw and experienced in various destinations.
