What if you could turn your favorite Mixtape into an actual book. And the cover be a hand painted composition inpired by legendary Hip Hop album covers. We partnered with Artist Marcel Stewart and Playwrights Canada Press alongside Suitcase In Point to Visualize and  bring The Freedom Mixtape to life. We designed the front and back covers, drew the in-text illustrations as well as the overall visual direction for the entire book.

The result: A beautifully crafted book that is music to the ears, turn up your speakers and put your hands in the air to celebrate Freedom. This audio-visual experience is a soulful artistic bouquet of original songs, stories, poems, anecdotes, spoken-word pieces, and musical instrumentation from folks living in Ontario’s Niagara Region. A community conversation about our complicated relationship with emancipation and Freedom*

Freedom: A Mixtape offers a radical reminder that in our bleakest moments, we rise up through Love, self expression and community.
