Am very grateful to have my b-boy photographs included in the “Word is Bond”, Hip Hop Exhibit at the Museum of Civilization @mcqorg (Sur Paroles, Musée de la Civilisation), Quebec, Canada, until November 2024. It explores the history of hip hop culture in Quebec through multi-media expressions, from visuals to audio.
 
The black and white photos are my vintage images taken at Cellspace breakdancing sessions, San Francisco (2008), when I explored the city more via documentary street photography, capturing subjects that inspired (for illustrative projects). The rest of the images are courtesy of the Museum (thanks Nathalie!), with shots of the exhibits and an opening night performance.
