PHOENIX QUEST

Hey y'all! I wanted to share a “Flower Spirit” sequence from my film Orisha’s Journey. In African lore, it is believed that spirits dwell within all things and so all nature should be respected. Being of West African descent (Ghana) I grew up hearing tales of this sort which captured my imagination.(shout out to my boy Iker Maidagan on bkg colors!)

Hi, my film recently played in Brazil's Animage Festival for a special screening of African animation. It's an honor to participate. It's screened at over 50 festivals at this point, and I'm grateful to everyone who helped me on it. Much more to come! #animation #africa #brazil #sankofa #panafricanism #cartoon #thankful #film https://www.instagram.com/p/B4TjfG6DDwF/?igshid=1b4lcb6e5ebsq

Hey! I wanted to share some good news...I recently got word that my film Orisha's Journey will be screening this year at the Hiroshima International Animation Festival in their "Educational Film Market" section, which is where they showcase student animated films they picked from around the globe. Its an honor to be screening there and since Hiroshima is one of the biggest Animation festivals in the world its also a great opportunity. I wanna thank my loving family and friends that helped me with my project. (This is the poster I sent to Japan) -Abdul

Hi! This is a fable from my comic (Phoenix Quest) called the “Battle for Gaia.” It’s a myth of how we get Day and Night, as described in a battle between the gods of light and darkness. Thanks! -Abdul
