I weld because steel holds memory; it bends, it scars, it endures. Every bead is a decision, every mark a record of force and intention. I came to the torch because I needed a material that could carry the weight of what I was trying to say about identity, ancestry, and survival. Steel doesn't apologize. Neither does my work.
COMPLEMENTARY wORKS
Wanita Dixon's paintings on canvas complement her sculpture practice. Each work is a distinct investigation into identity, memory, and cultural inheritance.
Through welded steel and thick layers of paint, Dixon excavates memory and ancestral knowledge, transforming raw material into visual testimony. Each work is an act of cultural preservation and personal reckoning.
