In Panther Pose, the legacy of the Black Panther Party is reimagined through a bold and modern lens. This piece captures a fearless, contemporary embodiment of revolutionary spirit—adorned in a textured black beret and faux fur, with fiery locs threaded with symbolism and a gold grill flashing from a defiant snarl. Her eyes, though unseen, radiate strength, pride, and resistance. Every detail—from her expressive nails to the powerful gesture of baring teeth—echoes the unapologetic energy of a movement that demanded dignity, power, and justice.
This painting answers the question: What would a Black Panther look like today? The answer—stylish, fierce, and still fighting.
