Jenn Nkiru

This visual album from Beyoncé reimagines the lessons of "The Lion King" (2019) for today's young kings and queens in search of their own crowns.

Director Jenn Nkiru authors a personal and powerful exploration of blackness through piecing together dreamlike portraits with stunning archival footage that includes Afrofuturism pioneer Sun Ra and revolutionary organization the Black Panther Party.

Short film by Kamasi Washington to promote the track "Get Lit", featuring George Clinton and D Smoke, from his third album "Fearless Movement".

Beginning at the industrial revolution of the ‘great north’, Jenn Nkiru draws lines between peoples, cities, countries, buildings, movements, bodies and spaces(s) using a mixture of archive materials and new footage. There is little stillness as we are pushed and pulled through Black histories and communities across the city of Manchester and beyond. Nkiru has termed this filmmaking process “cosmic archeology”, and it is grounded in Afro-surrealism, experimental film and the Black arts movement.

A high-concept, in-your-face experimental short showcasing the unique beauty, energy and exuberance of one of NYC's last underground subcultures: Voguing & Ballroom

The cosmic journey of sacred youth, during which pain, pleasure, and sublimation are nonnegotiable.

This new work was made especially for the room by Jenn Nkiru, a British-born filmmaker of Nigerian descent. Her videos celebrate the vibrant creativity and speculative vision of the African diaspora while exploring what she calls, "cosmic archaeology," a potentially mystical connection to history through visual memory.
