// ahn michael
Born and raised in the Carolinas, Ahn is a queer, Black illustrator and dreamer. They are committed to investing in marginalised healing and futures, to helping liberate brown, queer, and femme/gender non-conforming people from systems of oppression.
They envision a world which is quieter, softer, gentler, more honest, more accountable - more present with feeling and truth. Their art aims to guide us towards that world.
Though fond of watercolor and gouache, they work primarily in digital painting and web3/NFTs.
// somnoscapes
somno (sleeping) + scape (a place to reach for)
The places we reach for in our dreams. Realities which are made somewhere, if not yet here - they remind us there is still space to dream and to see those dreams manifest on this earth. Each illustration is paired with a written affirmation.
This collection centers marginalised (queer, brown, femme, fat, disabled..) futures.

// little one
I began writing "little one" to help awaken the inner child in each of us, and to guide that child through this noisy, painful world.
My hope with these illustrations is to inspire more intuition and gentleness. I center brown, queer, femme, and animal experiences in my work, with a commitment to the labor of liberating the most marginalised.
