Aliyah Sidqe is an artist, activist and educator. Aliyah is a self taught artist who strongly believes in the power of art and expression. She noticed at a young age that there was/is a lack of accurate and positive images of people who look like her. Out of this realization, Aliyah began to make it her mission to be intentional about empowering people of color through her art. Aliyah began to gain more and more passion for art which led to her first exhibition show , “New Power Generation” in 2014, curated and hosted by artist, Milton Bowens. She has continued to feature her work in Galleries such as The Brickhouse, Sol Collective, and 1810 with the intention to have her own gallery.
