“My idea of a Black future would celebrate old materiality and technologies which work in harmony and respect of nature, rather than trying to conquer and hoard.”

Join artist Nia Ekiyor-Katimi (a.k.a. StudioBabyCupid) for a behind the scenes look at how they created their solarpunk-inspired CBC Arts logo for Black Futures Month.

Produced in association with CBC Creator Network.
