FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WITH MY (CURRENT) ANSWERS



Q: How do you make your jewelry?


I work directly alongside two desktop cnc milling machines that take my jewelry object illustrations and cut them out of various types of sheet metal. After milling, these pieces are all bent, formed and finished by me at my workbench.

Q: Who is your jewelry for?


I make jewelry specific to Black hair called headcrests. I also make items such as faces and collars that I welcome everyone to wear. 

Q: What does BLACKMARZIAN mean?


BLACKMARZIAN means: processing Black myths of dreaming, glitching, worldbuilding and liberating.
I wonder: how could a Blackness on Mars ever be originated from our earthly freedom...

Q: What are you inspired by?


I’m motivated by Afropresentism, speculative nonfiction, strange outsiders, “world” music, digital fabrication and technological liberation.
