Numa The Sky City Artwork

Bio: Maasai Amewa, known as M.S.I, is a Chicago-based digital artist, music producer, and independent music publisher whose work sits at the intersection of performance art, technology, and activism. His visual style is based on Abstract Realism, conceptual imagery, and story telling. Artist Statement: As an artist, I believe in the power of blending sound, visuals, and storytelling to challenge, engage, and inspire. My work reflects the complexities of identity, and the many shapes of reality. I use digital media to explore the intersections between art, technology, and futurism, constructing immersive experiences that provoke thought and create spaces for dialogue. My practice is deeply rooted in the stories of my people—our history, our pain, our strength—and I aim to amplify these narratives through a fusion of sound, movement, and visuals. By pushing the boundaries of traditional art forms, I seek to envision new ways of being, creating, and resisting.
