Three Odera’s stand amongst the fog, with textures and shadows of the body as landscape outline the composition. Remnants of lunar cycles and blood moons trace the body.

They’re flooding the zone with horrors. All of them are important and it’s okay if you can’t focus on all of them.
Figure out where you can make a difference (calling a congressman, being in the streets, feeding a neighbor).
It all helps.

A mini collage made for IG close friends. Three Odera’s stretch with their legs raised and clasping together at the feet. The form creates dynamic volumes in the legs, glutes, and back. On two of the smaller repeated forms is a cut out of Rotimi Fani Kayode’s piece bronze head, mirroring Odera’s pose. Throughout the composition are statues of Anyanwu, alusi of the sun peaking over and saying hello. Three smaller Odera’s pose playfully in front of the original set of legs.
A recent close friends collage on Eke day—heat, creativity, cosmic light, the warmth of blood vessels and circulatory systems, stretching in yellow and red jockstraps, the eye of Anywanwu, stretching across time to connect to Rotimi Fani-Kayode’s Bronze Head (1987)
Yeah, in general, we privatized public accommodations instead of building more housing precisely because people wanted to believe anyone without housing should be dehumanized and ostracized.

Oh, the grifters are targeting Relooted for being a game about reclaiming African artifacts? You bet I will buy, review, and stream it then. Tired of backwards racists.
The amount of racism in the Relooted reviews is sickening.
A bunch of assh*les clearly bought the game just to leave a negative review before getting refunded, and another bunch of assh*les are marking these reviews useful for them to be displayed a the top store.steampowered.com/app/3255890/...

Black art can look like it’s trying for something no one can understand. Not true. We work within the Black paradigm, for Black people, & the white gaze is incidental. We experience life far outside whiteness, & we express ourselves by this framework, & when we speak to each other we’re understood.

Losing my mind as my partner plays a 2004ish jpop string orchestra instrumental album as they focus and type.
It was calming until a cover of BoA’s Kiseki came on. And the way that the choreo and video is imprinted into my bones means im not relaxed. Im fiendin to get up and dance.

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.
I wanted to dress comfortable and casual and embrace the Orie vibes for today 🌊🐟
