When I think of flight, travel, and expansion, I think of the Black Femmes in my life, my
grandmother especially. She was a beautiful, loving and resilient woman who recreated herself
as many times as needed for herself and her family.
Nyrie Benton is a writer and photographer from Prince George’s County, Maryland based in
Brooklyn, New York. These mediums allow her to explore possibilities within Black Liberation
through the connected nature of context and creation.
