关于我们

Sista Creatives Rising is a project and concept developed by Black disabled mother-daughter duo Claire Jones and Amaranthia Sepia. SCR helps marginalized women and marginalized genders gain accessibility and visibility in the arts to facilitate personal healing. We push to increase gallery representation and leadership roles, translating into increased visibility and diversity. Meet the Creators: Amaranthia Sepia ART COORDINATOR, CREATIVE, MENTAL HEALTH ADVOCATE Amaranthia Sepia feels it’s critical to use her voice to facilitate positive representation of marginalized women and marginalized genders. As a Buddhist Black, invisibly disabled woman with C-PTSD, agoraphobia and panic disorder, she highlights unconventional experiences through art. Returning to America after spending her childhood in Japan, Sepia was severely bullied. Creating works based on fond memories of Tokyo taught her the healing power of art. Since 13, she’s coordinated art events on anti-bullying advocacy, BLM, disability inclusion, and women’s mental health. Now 23, she provides folks tools for utilizing their creativity to gain confidence to make a difference in their communities.

A Buddhist and Frances Perkins Scholar, Claire's journey to scholarship began during her childhood in Barbados when she sought relief from the chaos of living under domestic violence. Claire uses her creative works, poetry, and informative writings to encourage women trauma survivors to utilize the arts for self-improvement. In the 1990s, standing at The Door of No Return in Senegal, where slaves last saw their homeland, she reaffirmed her purpose: to confront and overcome intergenerational trauma.
