Hi, my name is Ibraheem Leone and I’m a creative who’d love your vote in this round!

My practice is pretty expansive but let’s zero in on ✌🏿 that are relevant to our connectedness!

DOCUMENTARIAN 🎥

Most know me for my documentary effort The Tapestry; A project centered around connecting people through threads of poetry and song. https://x.com/ibraheemleone/status/1616118445396922370?s=61&t=BpgeOyK6d6vvh0Gg9Ytntw

In truth my documentary practice expands beyond that and is applied to any moment, energy, knowledge, and feeling of connectedness that I want to transcend the boundaries of a physical space.

A simple series I do at Crypto conferences where I document the current builders on the blockchain. https://x.com/ibraheemleone/status/1600675572426084352?s=61&t=BpgeOyK6d6vvh0Gg9Ytntw

This is a video I made documenting the sentiments around Seoulbound, a gathering that connected DAOists from around the world in Seoul and reimagined the way we connect w crypto from an Eastern perspective. Stayed tuned for the next iteration 👀 https://x.com/ibraheemleone/status/1653796040636764162?s=61&t=BpgeOyK6d6vvh0Gg9Ytntw

POET✍🏿

A moment I documented last week in Malaysia, where I connected with an Indonesian trough my West African style of song https://x.com/ibraheemleone/status/1730558295872847889?s=61&t=BpgeOyK6d6vvh0Gg9Ytntw

My first trip to Asia, also inspired a poem. WOVE -West On Visiting East depicts some poetic reflections on the role of humility in experiencing and connecting with a culture other than your own. It was part of NFT Nows activation during Korea Blockchain Week and was chosen to be the opener every day of the 3-day event. https://x.com/ibraheemleone/status/1699818897791406175?s=61&t=BpgeOyK6d6vvh0Gg9Ytntw

Conclusion

The medium may change but the principle of weaving stays the same. Documentary, poetry, art, film. All mediums at my disposal will be used to weave is a little closer to each other 🫂

Thank you for your consideration 🙏🏿
