MEET OUR FOUNDER

Alexandria Eregbu is an independent curator and cultural practitioner working at the intersections of art and music. 

As a visual artist her artwork engages a combination of archival images, symbols, proverbs, and folklore to invoke ancestral memory in African-American existence. She creates textiles, paintings, sculpture, and performances to bridge nature, design, healing, and ecology. She uses materials like beads, indigo, cowrie shells, wood, and feathers and processes like embroidery, appliqué, natural dyeing, drawing, and quilting to make meaning with the unseen.

As DJ FINDING IJEOMA, Alexandria blends distinct methods of sampling, mixing, and archival audio to amplify femme voices, invoke Black memory, and honor the tradition of storytelling within global dance music culture. Rooted in Chicago’s rich sonic legacy, her practice embodies a deep reverence for rhythm, ritual, and collective gathering.
