Da Muslima (The Muslim Women) is a striking mixed media piece where C-Note boldly fuses diverse artistic inspirations. 

The textured use by C-Note of wax and ink echoes a rich visual depth while the central white headwrap, highlighted like Johannes Vermeer’s iconic Girl with a Pearl Earring, becomes a powerful symbol. This artwork celebrates African American Muslims within the United States, drawing its visual language from both Western art history and contemporary experience.
