"Ne cherche pas les réponses, qu'elles viennent d'elles-mêmes, comme des fruits mûrs. Le travail, la vie, et tout ce que tu fais, ne sont pas là pour être complet. Il faut aimer, à l'intérieur de la forme, l'inachevé. Que tout ce que tu fais soit toujours suspendu, qu'il n'y ait pas de fin. Il y a quelque part dans l'inachevé un sens qui ne peut pas être découvert avant le temps. Le temps seul saura t'apporter ce que tu désires."

"Do not seek the answers, let them come by themselves, like ripe fruits. Work, life, and everything you do, are not meant to be completed. You must love, within the form, the unfinished. Let everything you do always be suspended, without end. Somewhere in the unfinished, there is a meaning that cannot be discovered until time. Only time will bring you what you desire."

Save the Date: Nanm Santre 5th Annual Goddess Awakening Circle at Riis Beach!
If you were able to make it to a STR.DST.MRKT. activation, you met Natou Ma'at of Nanm Santre, her beautiful art, and healing practice. Whether through her vibrant paintings, oils, soaps, or the Reiki workshop she led at the Lakou NOU culminating expo showcase, Natou brings a truly special energy to everything she does.
Now, she’s inviting women to join her for the 5th Annual Goddess Awakening Circle at Riis Beach, New York on Saturday, July 26, 2025, under the Lionsgate Portal — a powerful cosmic energy that opens at the end of July and brings in Sirian (Sirius Star) frequencies of rebirth, abundance, and alignment.

Just finished bingeing all the episodes of the Oyasound Podcast hosted by Sabine Blaizin, what a gift! I’m in love with this project and the invitation it offers to dive deeper into the collaborators, stories, histories, and connections to, from, and beyond Haiti and across the diaspora that shaped the album Tonight We Fly (Aswè A Na Vole) by Sabine Blaizin and Okai Musik.

The Dear Neighbor Project by Tiffany Baker
Created by Brooklyn-based artist Tiffany Baker, The Dear Neighbor Project is a multi-site mural installation that transforms the voices of Gowanus residents into public art, reflecting their personal experiences with neighborhood flooding.
As an artist with a studio based in Gowanus, I was honored to be interviewed for this project.
