Hello! I’m new here. I’m a conceptual/surrealist Ugandan photographer & multi-inter-disciplinary artist based on occupied Lenape land (NYC).

I tend to hide my art and hide as an artist but I’m trying to get back into it, and put myself out there.

Excited to connect with other artists, & also showcase my work on here! 🍉

This piece is currently untitled.

It's taking me a moment to really think about this fediverse presence I'm trying to build for NLNL... today I'm remembering to post here letting y'all know our next dance session is tomorrow night May 28th at 7PM. Registration required but $15 donation optional. We want folks to have a safe space in the city to shake their bodies for #exercise, #MentalHeath or any other reason they might have.

Boosts appreciated!

Construction paper cut-out poster for the NLNL event on May 28th, 2025. It says "no phones; no talking; just dance". I've been making these every time and I'm going to try and remember to post them here too because I have been recycling them when they're gone but I sometimes like the way they look. This one is 5/10 IMO but I'm excited for the next one!

The saga continues. Is this the first rite of passage for every #nyc transplant? 😬

Also bought this cute print of flaco as a parting gift. They're a #nyc owl who gained some notoriety.
Black print of an owl mounted om white paper. It's in front of the empire state building. The epigraph reads 2010-2024 and prominently displays their name, FLACO. A tiny plastic duck is also in the picture I found it in my pocket but I don't know how it got there.
A sticker and some text which reads: flaco was a Eurasian owl who was let out of the central park zoo by some hooligans and spent one glorious year living on the LES before passing away in 2024 after flying into a window. Though his reign as one of the city's ruling raptors was short, he is fondly remembered. It is said that when the moon is full and the park is quiet, you can see his ghost flying through the trees near the Harlem meer

If you were Black and woke up in NYC on Monday, July 13, 1863, things got terrifying quick. For Black New Yorkers, there was no reprieve. Black life was dispensable to white mobs & law authorities. The Civil War, poverty, & rabid racism in 19th-century New York explains the events of that week. For Black Americans, the NYC Draft Riots were a heinous episode in an already brutal age. But it didn’t happen in a vacuum.

DWeb NYC Node Meetup: April Edition
Sun 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
DWeb New York

Come hang out with folks associated with DWeb principles in New York City. This month we're being hosted at Biotech Without Borders, a member-led community lab providing low-cost access to molecular biology facilities and other biotech-related tools.

As food for thought, members of the lab ask you to consider the question: What do you want out of a decentralized research institution and what types of projects could it enable that aren't possible in traditional institutions (industry R&D, academia) because of our current incentives?

Come up to Suite 319. Please keep the door(s) propped open and if you're unable to get in please call or text 7086371289 and someone will come down.

Hope to see you there!

I’ve been in #NYC for over 20 years and had no idea there was a “Sniffen Court” … it looks and sounds right out of a fantasy film. Midblock East 36th in Manhattan. Originally stables for the wealthy houses around this area. #Architecture #Landmarks

One of the creepiest photos I’ve taken in #NYC. A thick black fog covered the Hudson River on my home the other night — many of us stopped to look and discussed a possible alien invasion. 👽🛸
