My art career often feels less like an art career and more like a career in educating, usually by using my body.

I tend to focus less on genre as a starting point and more on idea or intention and let the idea dictate genre.

My interest in language is steadfast, but I think each project and its accompanying intentions dictate how language must be used.

As much as I believe in the capacity for art to create change, and as much as being an artist is physically and emotionally challenging, there is ultimately something a bit comfortable about making art in the comfort of your own home.

Music is my first love, where my artistic journey began.

I didn't want to give the white reader an opportunity to think of racism as imaginary - a sentiment that is already a central barrier in addressing the problem.

I couldn't write about love without writing about hate - specifically, how the experience of hatred embeds itself in the body and prevents love from entering or leaving.
