Aliyah Sidqe has centered her art practice around empowering and uplifting her community. Throughout her career as a self taught artist, she has used vibrant colors and bold images to craft thoughtful portraits that represent many marginalized communities. Her work has been featured in Galleries such as The Brickhouse, 1810, and Sol Collective among others. Her most recent solo exhibition “The Babymama Effect'' was featured at The Union Gallery at Sacramento State University in February of 2022. Her murals can be viewed on Apartment and Grocery store buildings, in schools and community centers throughout the City of Sacramento. As a studio artist, muralist and educator, Sidqe hopes to continue to inspire by creating beautiful work that is reflective of and acceptable to her community.
