MONOLITH

Artist activist and organizer based in Washington DC creating work through the

visual language of Graffiti,

Streetart, and Design.
 

 

Inspired by the history of hip

hop culture, the aesthetic is also influenced by pop culture, social justice and political philosophy.

"Graffiti and street art have the innate ability to reclaim space overcrowded by eyesores of capitalism and advertising,

be a powerful tool that can elevate the creative language of resistance and

social movements, and serve as one

of the remaining avenues of expression and culture in local communities

that are facing rapid gentrification."

Monolith co-created and curated the Bern   The System DC art show, Co-founded

  the 411 Collective, Co-organized and         facilitated the DC2StandingRock group        mural tour, the Deport Trump postcard         mural at DisruptJ20, the DC Rises year        of resistance Art Show, and helped              develop the DCPL 1968 Poor People's          Campaign poster workshop and                 mural project. Recent streetart

           illustrating gentrification in the city 

            is featured in the landmark 

             documentary film What

              Happened2ChocolateCity.
