Kaliah Hekima is a visual story-teller and her work reflects the many facets of herself and what it means to navigate this space that is being black, a woman, and aware. She works with various mediums, including acrylic and oil paint, graphite, pastels, charcoal, and sometimes photos. Her portfolio demonstrates a range of styles from realistic to loose and expressive. She enjoys depicting the unapologetic, loud, multi-faceted Blackness and woman-ness that has shaped her idea of success and paradise. Her work does not seek permission or say “excuse me”, but rather to claim its place amongst what is considered truth.
