Welcome to Palms Upward—art should never sit quietly, and neither should you.
I’m Ociola: poet, satirist, storyteller, and visual experimenter. Curiosity is usually where the work begins. From there, I follow it into the absurd, the tender, the political, the sacred, and the unsettling.
During off hours, I’m usually devouring horror films, wandering through lesser-known museums, or spending time with my thoughts—they never bore me.
