To Witness | To Guide
“...She is a witness and a guide...”
- Carrie Mae Weems
I am the camera and subject, always. When you think about self-portraiture it seems to be rooted in ego, but for many it is the nurturing of a trauma. The artist has to continually grapple with self during the most agonizing times. To Witness | To Guide is an iteration of what self reflection feels like during a season of healing and expansion.

Bryant has exhibited installations with the Nasher Sculpture Center, The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Women and Their Work The MAC, SXSW, The Houston Museum of African American Culture and Talley Dunn Gallery. Bryant is currently
residing in Dallas, TX and holds a Masters of Fine Art from Southern Methodist University.
