Sierra Renee is the artist behind JuuJuuMama The name JuuJuuMama is inspired by her brand Good Juu Juu, founded in 2018. Born in the 1990s in a small city in the Hudson Valley just north of New York City, Sierra grew up within a multiracial family shaped by Black, Italian, and Puerto Rican heritage; an upbringing that continues to inform the layered cultural identity present throughout her work. She has been creating physical art since childhood, developing a foundation in hand-cut collage, painting, and mixed media that continues to shape her visual language today. Much of her traditional work remains within her personal collection, displayed throughout her home and shared intimately with family and friends. Since 2022, her practice has expanded into text-to-image AI and custom generative models trained on her own imagery. Rather than replacing traditional art-making, these tools have become an extension of her long-standing exploration of collage, symbolism, layering, and speculative world-building. Working primarily through Midjourney and self-trained models on Titles.xyz, Sierra intentionally creates systems that center Blackness, pushing against the cultural biases often embedded within generative AI. Rooted in Afrofuturism and surrealism, her work moves between visual art, fashion, and digital mythology. Gemstones, sculptural adornment, and immersive environments appear as recurring symbols exploring ancestry, transformation, self-defined value, and the preservation of cultural memory within emerging technologies. Through both physical and generative mediums, Sierra’s work asks who gets represented in the future and who is too often left out of it.
