About the Artist and Designer
Keenan Dailey is a multidisciplinary artist and designer who focuses on afrofuturism and expressing the reality of trauma through varying artistic mediums. He writes,
“My work focuses on disenfranchised and marginalized communities. Using empathic systems design thinking, I seek to analyze the ways in which systems of oppression work to destroy and dismantle those very communities and forge harmonious design solutions to help ease and eventually end those communities’ suffering. I seek to use my artistic voice in conjunction with my design efforts to share catharsis with those populations who ordinarily wouldn’t have the opportunity to express trauma.”
