115c - Delphine Diallo - "Transmutation / The spear of freedom / 2022"

@delphinediallo Transmutation/Female&Male/2022 By Delphine Diallo I had access to a private African art collection in New York city and i decided to bring back the past to the surface through the visualization of my African ancestors heritage. My body and the African spiritual objects are in connection to create the story of my self transformation. In my reality, i am my ancestors dreams. They are transmitting me their knowledge and messages. I received their power and spiritual messages. i am the past , the present and the future Bio Delphine Diallo is a Brooklyn-based French and Senegalese visual artist and photographer. Sought to challenge the norms of our society, Diallo immerses herself in the realm of anthropology, mythology, religion, science and martial arts to release her mind. Her work takes her to far remote areas, as she insists on spending intimate time with her subjects to better represent their most innate energy.

Wherever she can, Diallo combines artistry with activism, pushing the many possibilities of empowering women, youth, and cultural minorities through visual provocation. Diallo uses analog, digital photography and collages as she continues to explore new mediums. She is working towards creating new dimensions and a place where consciousness and art are a universal language by connecting artists, sharing ideas and learning.
