"Eyes Wide Shut" was created after Eric Garner was murdered. It's an emotional piece that exudes the strength and tenacity of men of color. It represents the numerous murderous attacks against black men and the disadvantages they face in society. Our eyes are opened to the injustices, disadvantages, murders, and implications that often go without punishment. The intricately written verbiage in this piece has significant meaning, down to Nelson Mandela's prison number.

Sontonya Necheal is from South Bend, IN.
I am a self-taught mixed media, abstract artist and hat designer who dances with various patterns and textures in my unique pieces. The depth of my work forces you to pause to study every square inch and depth of my pieces. My work is rich in color and fabrics with layered textures of emotion, capturing the rawness of my natural gift. My passion for art allows me to see the most fascinating and inspiring things that fuel my creativity. I believe in coloring outside the lines, mixing patterns, and embracing the beauty in my mistakes. I also enjoy writing and have published two books in honor of my late son, Rashaun Donaldson. My life is my canvas, and I’m colorfully expressing my true self and the power to fiercely overcome, one canvas or crown at a time.
