Ali Santana is a director and multi-disciplinary artist working with video, sound, collage, installation, and performance. Santana, a native Brooklynite is influenced by community, natural patterns, music and, ancient cultures. His work often explores topics related to Black American identity, observations of nature, and sensory perception.

Ali's audio-visual works combine video art, performance and experimental cinema with booming beats, sound design and original recordings which are chopped, looped, and arranged in real-time to create an abstract method of storytelling that he dubs Boom Bap Cinema.

Ali is an award winning educator having received the 2019 award for 'Innovation in Teaching Artistry' from the Association of Teaching Artists for his work with The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) Teens Program. He enjoys sharing his artistic practice with students of all ages, teaching video art, collage, and beatmaking.
