Transfinite: Neelu Bhuman


Hey folks, I made some illustrations for this film “Transfinite” by Neelu Bhuman. This is by far one of the hardest illustration projects I’ve ever worked or collaborated on. This is the fourth independent film I’ve worked on after Holding on to Jah, A Journey to Understanding, and America’s Shadows. Film requires vision, patience, communication, and a huge amount of team work.


Transfinite is a sci-fi omnibus feature film composed of seven standalone short stories where supernatural trans and queer people from various cultures use their powers to protect, love, teach, fight, and thrive.

I did many many illustrations , characters, and scenes for Transfinite and the individual/collective pieces were animated by artist Pamela Chavez! If you’re in the Bay and want to see this film go here and cop tickets.

If you’re in other parts of the world, please visit this LINK and get ready for the premiere near you. Support Trans filmmakers of color!!!

Kindred Journey 8- D’Lo

I first heard of D about three years ago when my wife was working on his website. Then I saw a feature in Hyphen magazine. Just this past April I had the chance to see him perform live at a conference called “Re-Map” where he did a dope piece which he’s performed several times about coming out to his parents and having an operation called top surgery. It was a dope piece and really blended a somber emotion with comedy. It touches on some of the complexity Asian Americans and all people go through with parents who are not familiar with or comfortable with LGBTQ identity. D was born in Queens NY to Sri-Lankan parents. Later he moved out to LA and has been there ever since. He has toured doing comedy and rhyming as an mc. He has also appeared in television series for HBO, Amazon, and Netflix. Definitely someone to keep your eye out for.
