ALEXIS HITHE

alexis hithe is a filmmaker and media artist.

Orbiting trans-Atlantic Black and queer spiritualities, culture, and theory, her work seeks to build and imagine futures beyond the colonial-carceral state.

Her current fixations include shadows, ghosts and reflections; she is focusing her MFA experiments and research on video and light projection.
