Through the process of reclaiming her inherited Afro-Caribbean Indigenous storytelling role she uses her work to uncover stories located in the body. The Black body is often a site of personal, political, and social enactments and can reveal the complexities in re-creation and reclamation efforts. Her work examines these complexities while also providing a way to increase the capacity for self and community integration. Her (research) creation attends to a process that is guided by trans-temporal collaborators who challenge ideas around the relationship to art and productivity, community integration, and authorship. Myrtle is the founder of The Beyond Strong Community--a personal and collective care community that provides multimodal arts based practices by local women artists for Black women that examines joy, ease, and liberation.
