We are Nia & Ness, a Black, out-lesbian couple and performance art duo, whose work serves as a visual-auditory diary of our daily lives. We believe that it’s necessary for our specific stories, as Black Lesbian Women, to be shared, and it is our responsibility to share them.
Since officially starting our company in 2016, our work and love have transformed into something greater than the art and lives we initially dreamed of. We'd like to welcome you into our journey, invite you to sit or stand with us as we live, love, heal and grow.
We are currently based in Rosendale, New York.
