Kameelah Janan Rasheed

Kameelah Janan Rasheed is a learner from East Palo Alto, California, based in Brooklyn, New York. Engaging primarily with text, Kameelah works on the page, on walls, and in public spaces to create associative arrangements of letters and words that invite embodied and iterative reading processes. Rasheed is invested in Black storytelling technologies that ask us to consider ways of [un]learning that are interdisciplinary, interspecies, and interstellar. She is the author of two artist’s books, An Alphabetical Accumulation of Approximate Observations (Endless Editions, 2019) and No New Theories (Printed Matter, 2019). Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and she is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, including a 2021 Guggenheim Fellowship.
