About
Yusephinum LLC is a Queer, BIPOC, Seattle based artist collective with a proclivity for video and music production, video game design, illustration, and photography. We are dedicated to the representation of marginalized communities in the realms of fantasy and video game media. Our mission is to breathe life into evocative characters who amount to more than any singular aspect of their identity: characters who are nuanced, multidimensional, and truthfully represented. We want to promote those within Queer and BIPOC spaces of Seattle and beyond to use their artistic and creative voices by acting as a beacon for marginalized artists whose intentions align with ours. Collaboration is the cornerstone of the collective. With a dynamic team of a diverse skill-set, we produce interdisciplinary projects that combine captivating audio and visuals with compelling narratives. Each artist who has joined the collective propels us forward on our quest to shift the paradigm of representation in fantasy narratives by creating new, dynamic, and nuanced archetypes.
