ETHOS

We alchemize the raw material of reality into art that awakens subconscious thought. As artists of the 21st century, we believe it is vitally important to respond to our society’s present issues and desires to evoke a future that is free, careful, loving, balanced, and allows all of us to rise to a higher perspective from which to view one another and ourselves. We take on this challenge because we believe in the magic of change. Our aesthetic follows our ethos - we create otherworldly compositions and stories that play with and among the divide between reality and fantasy. As queer black women, we breathe a special lifeforce into our work, formed at the margins of what is acceptable, reimagining what is possible simply by being alive. 


We invite you to take a journey with us into the limitless unknown so we may find a more equitable, loving model for our society through visual media.
