Khadija Nia Adell

(she/they)

Khadija Nia Adell is a interdisciplinary multimedia artist, arts administrator, independent curator born, and cultural organizer and raised in Miami, FL. She creates work that investigates her ancestral queer Black feminist connection to the African diaspora through a multifaceted practice in abstract and surrealist collage, digital manipulation, fiber, printmaking, performance, sculpture, photography, video, sound, and archival research.

Likes to talk to artists about: A liberatory spirit whose work calls on intuition, deep listening, and reflection. My practice is grounded in solidarity, a sense of expansion, possibility, and care. I love laughing and connecting in ways that center spirit, reflect culture, and harness the power of community. I approach this work with a sense of purpose and joy, moving from an alignment with spirit to support the work of transformation.
