ABOUT LIGHT WORK

Light Work is a US-based creative media platform at the intersection of art, education, and culture. Founded by Folasade Ologundudu, Light Work, collaborates and partners with artists, curators, academics, and creative contemporaries through engaging conversation on art, and culture, and the state of our society capturing the energy and complexities of the contemporary moment. Light Work takes a ‘community first’ approach to storytelling, archiving, and building new narratives by recognizing that culture starts in communities. Confronting the challenges our society faces in an increasingly technology-driven, resources-extracting world, Light Work uses the power of conversation and deep storytelling to develop thought-provoking intellectual conversations that spark inspiration. Through intimate conversation, engaging dialogue, and stimulating content, Light Work seeks to inspire the next generation of artists, creators, and cultural producers, to lead their best lives.
