The dichōtomi Story.

dichōtomi is a cultural archive dedicated to holding space for multidimensional experience of black creativity.

dichōtomi serves as the bridge between seemingly opposing worlds existing simultaneously in one space and time. from the humdrum of everyday life, we invite you into a world of limitless expression, where black creativity thrives.

this is the place where we share our stories through words, sounds, visuals and conversations that reflect our experiences. we are boundless in our creative expression and explore mediums from music and poetry, to photography, short films and interviews.

as an inoculate space designed to support and uplift black freedom, particularly south sudanese + africans in australia and beyond, we draw in curious minds who come here to share, inspire and be inspired.

as a community, we are set on creating a cultural archive that expands the reflection of african imagination + practice of joy in australia and beyond.
