Shogun Shido

Shogun Shido is an Oakland-based multidisciplinary artist and creator. Shido and I originally met at The Omni Commons located in the Temescal Neighborhood of North Oakland. We recently hopped on a call where we discussed how he came to be an artist, his journey from New Orleans to the Bay Area, and how community has been a cornerstone in his creative process.
