Art Fuuveau
“Art Fuuveau” is a 9-piece series that celebrates the diversity and beauty of black and other women of color across the globe with a focus on femininity, mystique, and regality. Each piece is heavily influenced by 1920s/30s Art Deco, the Art Nouveau stylings of Alphonse Mucha and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, as well as Neo Traditional Tattoo imagery.
“Anok”
The first of the Art Fuuveau series, “Anok” is named after the famous South Sudanese model: Anok Yai and modeled after women of central and North Africa.
The gradient on the inside pieces of Anok’s earrings are actually horizons; meant to mimic the sunsets of African landscapes along with the orange vermillion of her dress and raw Sienna hue of her irises. I put a lot of love into her Fulani braids as hair is such an important aspect of black culture (across the globe). The background, varying shades of viridian and teal, are art nouveau floral motifs. A gold ring serves as the frame, almost as if looking into a mirror or window and is accentuated by a halo effect. This gives the entire painting a glow, drawing the audiences attention.

Cyber23
Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world, action-adventure story type video game, set in Night City, a megalopolis obsessed with power, glamour and body modification. This 3-piece collection, titled CYBER23, represents women from the three lifepaths for the player character V: Nomad, Streetkid, and Corpo.
“StreetKid”
The Street Kid Lifepath is one of someone who's no stranger to the streets of Night City. Having lived a life in the streets fighting off "badges" and navigating around gangs, Street Kids have a wealth of knowledge about the city, knowing every street and just about everyone who lives there. Their street smarts and and their connections with the people who live there can help them.
Vaeda was born and raised in Pacifica, but has since moved on to a small apartment in the City Center. She is a contractor with some...very useful skillsets. Let's just say if you need someone to disappear, she's David Copperfield with Monowires. Vaeda has a single Kiroshi Optics Mk.2 optical implant in the bullseye pattern, as well as a more discreet model of facial cyberware. She's flashy though, sometimes to the dismay of her clients. From executing her gigs, to her personal fashion. She has a Synaptic Accelerator inside that is connected to the armor around her neck: flexible gold plates along the sides for mobility, jaguar-printed graphene trim, and inlayed neon-blue bioconductors.

“Nomad”
The Nomad Lifepath is one that revolves around a story of an outsider. Starting their journey in the vast desert-like district outside of Night City called "The Badlands", Nomads are scrappy and resourceful people who pride themselves in their strong family dynamics, forming clans that function similarly to small communities. Inside of Night City, Nomads have bad reputations, especially with the corporate elite and police, and are treated very much like outcasts.
Norma don't take no shit from nobody and has the Gorilla Arms implants to make sure she doesn't. She has two Kiroshi MK.3 ocular implants in the bullseye colorway and partial titanium-plated cranial/facial cyberware which is connected to a variety of frontal cortex implants in her brain. She runs on a Zetatech Beserk MK.4 making her as dangerous as she is mean. Style isn't really her main concern, but she does have a pretty set of Miami 8's (gold teeth), made popular in the 20th and 21st century of the former United Stated of America.

“Corpo”
The Corpo Lifepath, is all about holding one's own while navigating around people consumed with money, power, and respect. Since Corpos are acquainted with the one percent's lifestyle, they have a knack for dealing with people from the upper echelon and this knowledge can help them.
Elora is as beautiful as she is cunning. She lives in a high-rise on the edge of Westbrook. A little out of place there culturally, but having lived there her whole life, she is fluent in Japanese and has an upper-rank Tyger Claw "sponsor". That's evident in her top-of-the-line, 24k-gold and minimalist cyberware implants that adorn her upper body/face. Most of her mods are unseen to the eye, like the Moore Tech Berserk MK. 3 and other nervous system upgrades, but she may or may not have a Tyger Claw dermal imprint (whether it's brand for safety or actually functional, nobody knows). Elora uses her smarts and ability to schmooze to move up in the world, currently building her wealth as a Braindance investor.
