Tye Moores is a fine art photographer from Chicago, Illinois. Best known for her conscious African American identity photography work Tye Moores delves into the unknown of the culture varying from textured hair, dialect, and colorism. Influenced by the current state of racism and the events that followed in America she writes her own narrative of what Black beauty is.
“LIGHT is an ongoing series addressing the stigma i grew up with, that dark skin girls were “too dark” to wear bright colors. Using the genres: fashion and identity, I shoot on location and in studio to portray this idea and combat that negative thinking by combining vibrant patterns and colors on my darker skin models.“
