Jasmine Marie

Jasmine Marie (she/her) is a queer Black multidisciplinary artist born and based in Memphis. Her work centers stories of Black southern heritage, spirituality, and black femme identity, most often through afro-surrealist/futuristic imagery. She is half of NuJas, a multidisciplinary art house centering black women and queer folks.

“I think overall I want to make work that holds black folks close and moves us to imagine how love and community free us. Even in pieces that aren’t intentionally futuristic, I want us to feel bigger. Like we are part of something that transcends time and challenges our understanding of our place in the world.”
