Black Like Water - Paperback

Black Like Water is built around the flow of water as a central concept and as a metaphor for Black

womanhood-fluid, powerful, transformative. Just as water shapes the land, the words and

experiences in Black Like Water invite readers to reshape themselves. Through a combination

of poetry, reflective writing prompts, and holistic exercises, this book offers a multi-layered

experience where every reader can engage at their own pace, and explore not only the text but

also their own internal landscapes.

Shiann Croft is a multidisciplinary artist and poet whose work centers on Black

identity, creative liberation, and cultural reclamation. As the Founder, Director, and Curator of

The Coven: Black Artists In Residence, Shiann creates spaces where artists can reconnect

with their roots, and create art that is both revolutionary and restorative.
