About
zaire "zyyear" love
Zaire Love is a multi-disciplinary artist, filmmaker, TEDx speaker, and entrepreneur from Memphis, TN. Her work is an ode to being black and southern in America because the black South has always had meaningful “cornbread” to share. Her mission is to honor and amplify the stories and voices of the Black South.
She is a graduate of Spelman College and Houston Baptist University, where she graduated Summa Cum Laude from both institutions. Zaire is currently an MFA student at the University of Mississippi at Oxford studying Documentary Expression at the Center for Southern Culture.
