Vulnerability and growth form the foundation of Melissa Alexander's work. In particular, she focuses on the inter-relational intimacy that exists within the Black American community, encouraging the model and viewer to lay down their guard. Her work is her protest, her rebellion, her chance to strengthen the Black narrative that has been washed, overlooked, and undervalued.She resides in Atlanta’s West End neighborhood with her daughter. She’s a big fan of A Tribe Called Quest, Conan the Barbarian, and Zora Neale Hurston. Currently, she is working on projects related to the evolution of the Black girl into the Black woman.
