Artist Statement -



Kevin Philippe (ixnivek)


In my illustrations I depict ebony, chocolate-dipped, sun kissed, high melanated, copper-tone, moorish black women who have a healthy relationship with the Sun and the universe thanks to the particle of melanin within her. Melanin is one of the best gift from the Creator and the fact that the original women posses this pigment is a reflection of the dark matter that holds the expandable dark universe, just like the Black Women is the holder (mother) of civilizations. Melanin gives color, melanin is beauty, melanin is life since a person strong in melanin was needed to absorb the intense sun rays in order to survive and procreate humanity (Adam & Eve).

My illustrations are done with Inkscape 0.48, which is a Vector drawing program.
