AeroSoul is a community institution and cultural resource that documents, promotes and develops the legacy and rich history of the Black/African diaspora's writing culture commonly known as Aerosol Art or Spray Can Art. From ancient Kemetic (Egyptian) pyramid texts and Dogon (Mali) wall drawings to the wall paintings of (Haitian) Vodun temples; AeroSoul draws upon the legacy of African writing narratives displayed on walls and architecture. AeroSoul’s international outreach and influence extends to Africa, Europe and the Americas, by exhibiting and collaborating with artists from the African diaspora. AeroSoul’s mural collective creates murals in the HipHop aesthetic that advocate for self-determination in struggling Black and Brown communities. This site is also designed to promote youth advocacy through HipHop's first element(Style Writing). Passing on the age old writing tradition to the next generation through educational apprenticeships. This will help to insure that our cultural rituals will have the power to free our collective spirit & mind.
