Through film, movement, and poetry, Keomi offers a dynamic and multifaceted way of sharing her story and journey of self-acceptance and growth. By linking her black-girl-experience to a flower in full bloom planted, exposed, unafraid and fruitful, she not only showcases her personal process but also creates a universal message of embracing one's identity fully—being unafraid to be seen, celebrated, and grow. Sharing her strength and vulnerability involved in her personal development and journey.
Her work and collaborations serves as an invitation for others to reflect on and celebrate their own unique journeys and identities with the intent to impact and inspire others who may be on similar paths of self-discovery and empowerment.
