Speaker Bio
Intisar Abioto (b. Memphis, TN. 1986) is an artist working across photography, dance, and writing. Moving from the visionary root of Blackgirl Southern cross-temporal/cross-modal storytelling ways, her works refer to the living breath/breadth of people of African descent against the expanse of their storied, imaginative, and geographic landscapes. She has produced The People Could Fly Project, The Black Portlanders, and The Black. She is the guest curator of Black Artists of Oregon, opening at Portland Art Museum in 2023. With the five women in her family, she is the co-founder of Studio Abioto, a creative arts studio.
