After seeing a staging of his work-in-progress "Huis Clos," a dance performance with elements of spoken word, role playing, and storytelling, I had the pleasure of having a conversation with Quaba Venza Ernest about his interdisciplinary world-building, and the many facets that make up these worlds. Emotionally impacted by the piece, I was happy to get to know some of the early building blocks of the dance, and the plays that influenced it. With insight into the origin of Venza Dance, ...

Glitch Feminism (w/ Prince De León)
Carving through wood, painting, and carefully placing grain into place to depict whole worlds of Black and African people, Prince De León is an artist who spends her time making art as a labor of love and a conversation with self. Together, the two of us revisit some of the most fruitful places in Philadelphia, a city that lives so fully in both of our hearts, and I got to learn about her art making process as a Liberian artist whose evolution, as a human, is solely connected to her art. ...

Life Through the Lens of Dance (w/ Jhelan Gordon-Salaam)

'Amor Fati' (w/ Ashley Beerdat)
Painting, pathways, and "honoring your fate." This week, Ashley Beerdat and I meditate on the guiding or gravitational pulls within her life as a painter, and how following the colors' natural dialogue impacts her relationship to the world, and helps build self-confidence. Ashley is a Canada-based painter who exhibits her work internationally. The two of us met from doing a group exhibition together, and have somehow found this correlation between poetry and visual art. Sit with us as ...

Finding Your Voice (w/ Aáisha Naté)
When taking a moment to look back on our journeys, how do we define or perceive the process of finding our own voice? What are some of our defining moments? This week, I've had the pleasure to talk to Aáisha Naté, a singer-songwriter from Brooklyn, NY, whose love for songwriting and singing has somehow led to this moment where the two of us are combing through some of what led to these songs being written. It was Spring when we had this conversation, and I felt beautifully overw...
