akeylah wellingtonloves the smell of Pink. She thinks you probably do, too. Her tapestries and sculptures deal with humor as both a noun connoting comedy and a verb meaning to endure. Working with found media from the 2000s, her attention to technological and political developments is an attempt to make sense of her personal experience of carceral-related displacement, loss, girlhood, generational inheritances, and time.
