Check out the Black Girl Bloom Performance Reel
Through film, movement, and poetry, Keomi uses her craft to share her journey of acceptance, compassion, and celebration. Connecting her black-girl-experience to one of being a flower in full bloom — planted, exposed, unafraid and fruitful, Tarver shares her personal process of learning, accepting, and appreciating her bloom. She inspires others to explore their self-awareness and celebrate it.
Created, directed, and choreographed by Keomi Tarver, this live, multi-sensory performance weaves dance, film, and poetry into one woman’s return to herself — an offering of presence, softness, truth, and power.
At the center is Keomi — artist, healer, movement storyteller — whose journey takes root in every moment on stage. But she does not bloom alone.
She is joined by a radiant ensemble of Black women performers — each bringing her own body, story, and spirit.
Together, they don’t just perform.
They testify.
They remember.
They remind.
Whether you come for the dance, the poetry, the story, or the stillness —
you will leave changed.
