About Me

i am the admirer of our beauty. i am the knife aiming for your face. i am darker than coal.i am searching for my eyes burried deep in a place that is unfamiliar and unknown. i am the last breath of that choking laugh, that ends in a teary smile. i embody nomo force, sound vibration that sometimes reminds you of thunder or the hummingbird. i am creation looking at you in me. i am ancient and recent- listening to the voice of rivers, as i travel home.visual artist,musician,writer,daughter of aje
