Title: Grounded

Jalina Ari (also known as Aja Nova), is a multidisciplinary creative and polymath. Through her paintings, writings, and music, Nova encourages others to explore her emotions and find healing through creativity. Whether she is teaching a class or creating new artworks, Nova is committed to helping others discover peace through creativity. She believes that everyone, regardless of their experience, can benefit from the transformative power of art.

My work highlights the importance of Black Art in America and it’s diversity in meaning through spirituality and philosophy.
