Aliyah’s Closet
For my 3D Illustration class I created a 3D miniature environment based on a famous person of our choice. The famous influencer, Aliyah Bah, or "@Aliyahsinterlude" on social media, inspired me through her confidence and ability to break social constructs that have restricted black people; moreover, black girls. For this assignment, I created Aliyah's childhood room which represents her past awkward and shy self, and opens up into a vibrant closet that symbolizes the growth in her confidence.
