Hi, My name is Tracy passion for surface pattern design is expressed through a freehand visual language of bold colour, line and graphic form imbedded with a laid back narrative. I’m excited by the idea of expanding my creativity into new avenues and Actively delivering beautiful crafted art work Verdant Afro’s aesthetic revolves around the idea of creating life’s back drop. Images that make you feel warm, happy, maybe a little sad or a talking point of sorts Bold beautiful prints that draw you in Accented by nature, I’m influenced by art nouveau , Art Deco and the art and design of many cultures. My background is in textile surface pattern design. My medium vector art(digital)
Nourishment Unmade

Nourishment Unmade

If you could un-invent something, what would it be?

nourishment losing its meaning in an age of mass production.

I would uninvent mass production—not out of nostalgia, but as a rebellion against a system hijacked by corporate greed, where food is valued only for profit, not for the bodies and lives it sustains. Mass production may fill stomachs, but it starves senses, culture, and the intimacy of eating.

I would uninvent it for the farmer who no longer sees seasons in the soil, for the eater who no longer tastes the story in a bite, and for the body that slowly unravels under synthetic convenience. To uninvent mass production is to reclaim nourishment from the clutches of profit, restoring meaning to the act of eating, to slow down, to taste, to know what sustains us beyond efficiency.

Food is more than fuel—it is memory, ritual, and life itself. Nothing that threatens those things for the sake of greed should survive.
