How To Fan-Girl 101...right here.
We were so honored to grab some time with Visual Narrator, Texas Isaiah while he was in NYC for a conversation about practice and intersecting interests at The Whitney Museum with Artist, Toyin Ojih Odutola and Novelist, Yaa Gyasi. We took the opportunity to get all the details we could about life (and space) in LA, the importance of archives and some best practices for capturing essence and creating safe spaces in photography. We may or may not have considered packing ourselves in his suitcase after this episode... Enjoy!
