Dez’Mon is an interdisciplinary artist and poet living in Long Beach, California; whose work explores self-reflection and the cathartic; achieved through brushless watercolor and ink on washi; collaborative documentary film projects, as well as experimental forms of poetry.

Public performances are set within large-scale immersive installations consisting of figurative watercolor paintings and poesy sourced from abstractions of the heart and emotional histories of the body.
