The Artist
Akisano is a multidisciplinary brand that was established in 2021 by Anthony Kendrick, a resident of Atlanta, Georgia, currently operating in the vibrant locale of Marrakech. A native of the United States, Aki possesses considerable real-world experience and is a self-taught artist.
The ethos of Akisano is rooted in the amalgamation of diverse skills across multiple disciplines, resulting in the creation of various artistic forms and bodies of work. Aki explains, "I employ DJing, painting, sculpting, fashion, interior design, and product design to shape the body of work, allowing me to subsequently curate events or experiences centered around the overarching narrative and message."
Furthermore, drawing inspiration from his upbringing in Atlanta, Aki infuses a global influence into all his works, with the intention of transcending cultural barriers and stimulating thought.
The Space Between Worlds
The Space Between Worlds is not just a project; it's a soul-stirring journey forged in the constant dance between Atlanta (ATL) and Marrakech (RAK), an odyssey that echoes the heartbeat of various countries. With every voyage, I navigate the delicate balance of change – an evolution mirrored not only within myself but also in the very fabric of my work. Neither Atlanta nor Marrakech now whispers the familiar lull of home; instead, I find myself suspended in the ethereal Space Between, a realm of transition. It's a profound state of being, a moment where the familiar is left behind, and the unfamiliar beckons. In this vast expanse, I am not merely departing from one place I once called home; I am crafting a new sanctuary in a world that unfolds before me, a canvas of endless possibilities.
