logo·phile | \ ˈlȯ-gə-ˌfī(-ə)l a lover of words. A leading artist of her generation, Brooklyn-based Kameelah Janan Rasheed has a near religious belief in words and their power to both shape and destabilize meaning. Fueled by a childhood immersed in books, including a father who intensively studied the Koran, Kameelah produces graphically driven text-based works - films, prints, installations, banners, billboards - animated by fundamental philosophical questions.
