Your Mommas Voice in the Back of Your Head
by Najja Moon
Artist Najja Moon was born and raised in Durham, North Carolina. The daughter of musicians, she played basketball through high school and college. Moon studied art at Pfeiffer University, just outside Charlotte, before moving to Miami in 2009. In 2015, she co-founded the BLCK family, a creative collective that brought locals together around culinary, visual, performing and social arts. She has lived and worked in different neighborhoods around Miami, as her practice has evolved from drawing, to sculpture, to public art. Engaging Miami’s diverse communities, Moon brings together art, life, and social practice in her inspiring hands-on approach to creativity.
