SONS OF THE RIFT [PART 2] Throughout African history, beadwork has consistently played an integral role in how different communities express their unique concepts of beauty and social heirarchy. In a deliberate effort to expand the boundaries of historical representation, SONS OF THE RIFT emerges as part of an ongoing Afrofuturistic portrait series –reimagining young men as generals and decorated war heroes. This series envisions the Great Rift Valley without borders and how a beadwork expressive tribe emerges from the engagement of different communities residing in this geological marvel, which spans from Eritrea to Mozambique.

For those of you who don't know! I opened a new studio location for @nebyaartistry earlier this year and obviously had to stay true to the creative in me! You know we had to christen the studio with a first shoot we called Birds of Paradise. To celebrate the new space I had a ka litto photoshoot social. What's that you ask? Think creative photoshoot / makeup installation! I created a concept grabbed a team invited some folks for vibes and dranks and kinda just enjoyed the photoshoot! Next one soon come hope to see you there! Shout out to man like @rafiqi07 @malnoblesse and @niingare who came through on the photography and video I really REALLY appreciate you guys! 🥺✊🏿👊🏿 @mwimili @_chelangat_ y'all honeys looked so cute and still got your hands dirty and stepped in to do what you do best!
