Description

Apparel as vessel—echoing Wheatley’s journey from bondage to brilliance, from elegy to liberation. Apparel that remembers—her ink, her exile, her illumination. Phillis Wheatley’s genius was a mental jailbreak—defying psychological warfare and enslavement with the fire of her verse. A jailbreak of the mind: Wheatley’s verse shattered the warfare of erasure.
