Jasmine Marie (she/they) is a Haitian-Memphian who is using photography, language, and archives across artistic mediums to both preserve Black cultural traditions and create space to imagine new ways of being. Jasmine's work centers stories of Black southern heritage, spirituality, and queerness through the mediums of photography, film, and poetry/prose in order to explore intimacy, agency, and what it takes to live freely. Drawing from practices and legacies of queer + black artists, documentarians, and dreamers before them, Jasmine is interested in how art can be used as a vessel for community building and resistance. Jasmine is a 2022 Crosstown Arts resident and has received project support and recognition from organizations such as Art Noir, Urban Arts Commission, and Indie Memphis.
