Biography
seck. is a filmmaker and visual artist whose work amplifies the Black experience through a decolonized lens. His talent for realizing immersive, eye-catching visuals is grounded in his technical background as a cinematographer, photographer, and editor. In just a few short years, seck. has established himself as a prolific voice in the New South, working alongside musical artists like Mike Floss, Jdece, Ron Obasi, and Brian Brown.
RNGLDR Magazine described him as “..an emerging audiovisual genius” and “Director of the Year.” His experimental video art installation FREE premiered in Nashville at two solo exhibition shows and won first place in the Creative category at 2021 Le Book Chicago. Recently, he directed a targeted campaign for Lululemon.
Statement
My art reflects a surreal black experience. As black artists, we often face continuous societal expectations to make work that is deep. Art is therapeutic for me. Therefore, I choose to simply make art, to express my unique imagination. What you’re seeing is a series of ideas that struck me while I was painting. Sometimes those ideas are permanent, others I may paint over a few seconds after.
