About Charm Taylor:
Charm Taylor, the St. Louis-born, New Orleans-living queen, whose recordings include The Road Within and She Is the Future, is a multi-disciplinary transformative artist whose work reflects her visions of a world that is vibrant, innovative, and healed. Taylor embodies the powerful cultural legacies of her ancestors and the arts activists before her. As an artivist, Charm Taylor’s works range from futuristic trap laced records and soulfully charged anthems for the people’s love revolution to immersive performance installations and high frequency multimedia art. She is the future where art is alchemy activating change and evoking spiritual evolution.
Charm has been working with CitizenShe and Ashé Cultural Arts Center performing & speaking on restorative justice through the lens of ARTivism, as well as laying the groundwork for social impact in the revolutionary Web3/NFT space focused on digital community building, creator ownership, and economic redevelopment using emerging blockchain technology. She’s released new music and was featured in her first exhibition at Tulane University: Unthinkable Imagination: A creative response to the juvenile justice crisis, in her AAW year.
