(b. 1998)

Sorunke (they/them) is a multimedia artist based in Texas and New York.
They combine their passions of storytelling and visual art
through writing, photography, and filmmaking.

They hope that by centering the beauty of otherness,
they can one day build an other world that is both physically and emotionally sustainable.

They ground themself in the endless possibilities of the future.
As they move forward in the life, they are rediscovering the world— one daydream at a time. All while drinking a non-dairy matcha frappuccino and remembering:

“I am not a prisoner of history… in the world I am heading for,
I am endlessly creating myself.”
-Frantz Fanon
Black Skin, White Mask

Graduating from the University of Texas at Austin,
they received a Plan II Honors and African and African Diaspora Studies dual degree (m. Gov),

Their academic interests center
urban/structural design, radical community building, and sustainability.
