Hello Happy People!

I am back to my weekly blogging schedule!

If you are new here, every month with 30 Days (you know, April, June, September and November), I share a daily photo, project or interview on my blog. This tends to be new or old work that I haven’t shared before (to my very unreliable knowledge, at least). Last month’s edition was one I enjoyed doing even though I was a bit scared to share those images.

And with that said, here are my 3 updates of things that happened whilst I was doing the #30DayPhotoProject.

Update #1 – Screenings

As may know by now, I took part in a Black women’s art festival together with 16 other amazing women. This annual festival celebrates the beauty of Black culture, identity and heritage. “Ife Nkili” is a phrase from the Igbo tribe in Nigeria that means “Beauty to Behold”. The festival was supported and funded by Arts Council England and curated by Chin We.

The festival premiered on YouTube on the 14th of October, but since then it has had successful screenings on Twitter Live, Everyman Cinema Broadgate and The Hackney Social.

If you missed any of those screenings, you can now watch it on-demand via Vimeo.

Update #2 – Newsletter

If you missed my post last week, I mentioned that I now have a newsletter. In it, I will be sharing with you any updates and events all in one place.

You are welcome to subscribe as I will be publishing each issue on the 13th of every month.

Update #3 – Print Shop Launch

I have now set a date for when I will be launching my PRINT SHOP.

This will happen in the Spring of 2022.

I am a firm believer that now I have set a date and put it out in the world, I cannot back out of my own word as I have put off launching the shop for the longest time.

One of the reasons, however, was the lack of manageable funds to be able to upgrade my website to have the option to have this shop/e-commerce. I have set up a ‘support me’ page to make this possible.

So, if you are in a position to support me in any way, please do by donating or by simply sharing the donation link. With just over 50﹪ raised, every little action helps and I will be forever grateful for the support. 🙏🏾

And there you have it. The 3 Winter Updates that I really wanted to share with you as I am now back to my weekly blogging schedule. And yes, the EK13 / 30 Day Photo Project will be back in April 2022 and it might just be another collaboration. Stay tuned!

See you next week! ✌🏾
