Who else but innovative City of Victoria Artist-In-Residence Kemi Craig would find links between Afrofuturism, west African free divers’ traditional spiritual practice of Orisha, and the spirits of captives drowned in the west African slave trade?
In work encompassing immersive, multi-sensory, site-specific installations and performances, this innovative dancer, filmmaker, multi-media creator and performance artist creates analog and digital work deeply rooted in themes of anti-oppression and social justice.
Since getting her start in film at Cinevic Society of Independent Filmmakers, Kemi has participated in artist’s residency programs with CineVic, the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, and Dance Victoria, and guest curated the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria’s programming series Blueprints for the Afrofuture. Currently, she is the City of Victoria Artist-In-Residence.
