Réal is a Bajan-American multidisciplinary artist with focuses in creative writing, filmmaking and photography. He holds an English BA with concentration in creative writing alongside minor concentrations in Media Production and African / African Diaspora Studies from the City University of New York. His writing primarily focuses on family and personal relationship dynamics alongside deciphering the environments that influence them. As a director of photography he brings the inner world’s of his collaborators to the optical realm through an emotive synthesis of color, composition and lighting. Much like the fiction novels that’ve been a substantial influence throughout his life, Réal weaves dense imagery together to supplement his world building whether his tool of choice is a pen, light or lens.
