Umulkhayr Mohamed (they/he/she) is a Welsh Somali artist, writer, curator and educator who produces work under the alias, Aisha Ajnabi, their 'art other'. Her artistic practice involves primarily sound, installation, and performance work that explores the tension present between enjoying the act of wandering between emancipatory temporalities and a functional need to position oneself in the now. His art is the place where they are able to join the practicing of a spirituality rooted in animism and ancestral honouring with a politic grounded in solidarity and liberation. She sees their practice as doing the work of eroding the borders between beings to reveal the wholeness that lies beneath.
