Onismo

Here I am, I know nothing, But at least I know one thing
I can show up, Showing up with all my inability, qualifies me to be hired by the spirit to do the impossible
MALIDOMA PATRICE SOMÉ
Long Bio
Born in Zimbabwe and a multi-hyphenate artist based in Newport, Wales, Onismo's exploration represents a deeply poetic visual language shaped by life's journeys, rituals, and memories. Our artistry fuses recorded video content, archival footage and found moving imagery with elements like rhythms, spoken word, and movement. This comprehensive approach intertwines various creative media to embed themes of heritage, culture, and transformative codes. As a hybrid Zimbabwean-Welsh resident, the integration of cultural traditions advocates for unity and growth. We are existing in the essence that the creative expression within this collective journey nurtures a connection with our Ancestors, nature, gratitude, and remembrance.
