Zuri Obi

I am a Haitian-American artist raised with deep cultural roots in magical realism. As a multidisciplinary filmmaker, my work strives to situate the viewer within surreal spaces that challenge conventional notions of 'truth' and 'reality'. As a Camerawomxn, I have collaborated with major artists such as Solange and Lizzo. As Creative Producer, my projects have screened at notable film festivals, including Sundance and won top awards at New Orleans Film Festival, AFI and BlackStar. Currently, I am developing my forthcoming documentary "How to Breathe Underwater", which is a personal mother-daughter healing journey as explored through dreamwork.
