After months of ideating and planning in collaboration with @themuseumofmodernart , this iteration of their Creativity Lab, inspired by the exhibition Ideas of Africa: Portraiture & Political Imagination in Africa is officially open! We’ve created a space to explore storytelling both in front of and behind the camera.
Through photography, creative prompts, and a curated library of photobooks, my @soulsinfocus team and I will be hosting workshops, photowalks, and an artist talk from April 13th through August 30th.
We’re kicking things off with our first workshop, The Printed Portrait, this Saturday, April 18th from 9–11am. Registration is required—link in bio 🖤
Save the dates and stay tuned as more registrations open. Looking forward to connecting with you all 🖤

I’m a proud child of Nigerian immigrants, born in Brooklyn and raised between two worlds— Brooklyn and Nigeria. Now, my art is on display at Brooklyn Museum.
‘Untitled, Juneteenth 2020’ is part of the “Breaking the Mold: Brooklyn Museum at 200” exhibition. Currently on view until February 2026.
Thank you to everyone working hard to preserve culture and community at @brooklynmuseum
All praises to the Most High 🙏🏾

“Fasanya asked Sarmiento about the importance about fashion in his life.”
"My grandmother taught me how to sew, so it's been around me," he told her.

Thanks to everyone who came out for The Printed Portrait, our first Creativity Lab workshop facilitated by @visualsbysade and @lvoneckartsberg_photography . People got to try both sides of the camera, play around with creative prompts, use photobooks as inspiration, and leave with a printed portrait of their own 📸
We’ve got more coming…
We’re at @themuseumofmodernart through August! Save the dates for upcoming events and be on the lookout for when free registration opens. Looking forward to seeing ya’ll 🖤💫
