"Odyssey" is a photo series and short film about a group of astronauts on their quest to a home they have never been, but always imagined: free of the "-isms" stemmed in anti-black systems. A home that's calling their spirit. However, when the travelers awake from an emergency crash landing, they are estranged and must find their way back to each other in hopes of obtaining what's been promised to them.

You stretch your hands and slowly gather your thoughts
Surrounded by wreckage in another world…
What was thought to be a pleasant childhood memory
In fact, was the ship ripping from the sky
What was thought to be you laying in the grass and the sky spinning
Was in fact, you coming to the fact that
you and your team
had an emergency landing
In the midst of your astral odyssey to other worlds
In search of a home you’ve envisioned, but knew existed
You look up and see multiple streaks in the sky
You all landed away from each other
This truth sinks in…
You strike the emergency flare.
“Are we still homeward bound??
