Hakim Pitts
Hakim Pitts (they/them) is Black genderqueer multi-award winning, creative and scholar crafting at the nexus of visual culture, community health, social justice, and spiritual activism. Utilizing this interdisciplinary practice, their mission is twofold: to resource people, communities, and organizations with theoretical and pragmatic tools to create, sustain, and manifest their best; and to use fine arts and media to (re)craft works that carefully explore notions of power, identity, ritual, embodiment, and formations of Black religious social and political life.
During their time in residence, Hakim will continue the development of The DreamHaus, an artist and socially engaged community project committed to spiritual activism, cultural preservation, community care, and sovereignty for hyper-marginalized Black people and people of African descent.
