"I chose to print on silk as a reminder of the precious fragility of such moments; to be a memory drifting in the wind, while also existing as a strong presence in our minds.”—kaystackss

McKayla Chandler's photographs are rooted in self-exploration and reflect the artist’s curiosity and the way she witnesses growth in herself and her community. Combining portraiture, editorial, and archival imagery, Chandler’s goal is to continue to unveil the importance of documenting in real time, exploring what it means to have tangible photographs or artifacts passed down through generations, while adding to the contextualized history of image-making in the Black community.

Discover Chandler's work at our booth (351) today on the LAST DAY of photofairs. Chandler was a part of the most recent cohort of Converse’s #HearHerHere, promoting the work of Black femme creatives, and Google's #ImageEquityFellowship supporting early-career image-based creators of color in the US and the expansion of a more equitable field of fine art.

For Freedoms is excited to support our fellows through sales and community-building opportunities. Tap to shop the booth or visit shop.forfreedoms.com
