senakirfa A. 

senakirfa A. is an interdisciplinary artist, poet, and learner, born and based in Amsterdam. A.’s practice is grounded in the poetics of African Diasporic world-making in Amsterdam, rejecting and disclosing Dutch-ocularcentrism, a foundational component of Dutchness, and attuning to the audibility of ‘post-’colonial grief. A.’s work across sculpture, screenprinting, zine-making, and writing is an extension of A.’s poetry practice, through which A. explores what A. terms poetic in(ter)ventions: an amalgam signifying what African-Diasporic worldmaking ushers in. A. organizes collective readings and poetry gatherings that facilitate Black and POC writers, poets, and readers.
