Fawlene Aziza-Copeland (b. 1994 Los Angeles) is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work offers a somatic perspective into her personal life experiences and the immediate culture she is surrounded by. Her representational practice invites viewers into the threads linked within personal identity, ecology, black culture and its political footprints. Through her work Aziza-Copeland depicts archival landmarks and subjects who gracefully engage against a political gaze, subjugation, and erasure and into humanity, grace, and liberation. Her use of color (or lack thereof), texture, and brush strokes brings forth an essence of movement, beauty, and humanity to be inferred as synchronistic with an “unseen” or intangible naturalistic context. Aziza has earned her BA from the University of Miami (2018), and is a current MFA candidate at Otis College of Art and Design (2025).
