ani-kweens

 




Shani is a spirit chasin’, forest wanderin’, Black woman who spends a lot time dreaming up new worlds through painting, the written word, and zine making as a way to heal and transform intergenerational patterns of harm, neglect, self-negation, and trauma. Shani’s work is greatly informed by the desire to learn and practice rituals that center the values of African earth-centered spiritual traditions. Shani's work seeks to unearth what has been buried and pushed aside as a result of assimilation and honor, celebrate, and affirm the ancestral practices that help folks of the African Diaspora to remain grounded and connected to our sacred paths.
