His/Story
Quincy Howard is a visual documentarian, ethnographer, and culturist from Columbus Georgia, dedicated to the preservation of culture, tradition, and story-keeping within the Black South. Quincy strongly believes that we deepen our relationships with ourselves by deepening our understanding of who and where we come from. A descendant of agricultural alchemists from South Georgia, Quincy pays homage to his roots through ritual, re-memory, culture work, and the utilization of ancestral and spiritual technologies. Utilizing his continued collection of ethnographic research, lived experiences, and familial archives & heirlooms, Quincy uses his body as a vessel and his camera as a portal for many stories to travel through. Quincy’s work aims to challenge one to cultivate, experience, and reimagine themselves through the groundwork laid out by those that came before them; ultimately advancing the tradition of storytelling and story-keeping within the Black South and the collective Black diaspora.
