With the ‘Bodega Run’ works, Self expanded her artistic approach to create dynamic, rounded and multi-dimensional characters out of the products and situations that exist specifically within these neighbourhood convenience stores. Pop, 2017, for instance depicts a curvaceous young black woman shopping for soda, bathed in the harsh light given off by powerful strip light bulbs.Exhibitions
