Tieshka K. Smith (she/her) is a Philadelphia-based photographer and content creator. She uses as many tools at her disposal to challenge and disrupt the status quo. Her community-based artistic practice interrogates racism and classism in place making and civic identity formation; how neighborhood-level memories and values are shaped; and the ways in which the marginalization of people and ideas adversely affects American life and culture. Her photographs have been featured online, in print, and in galleries, museums and other community spaces on the East Coast and in the Midwest, and are in a number of noteworthy private and public collections.
