@bella Barnes is an old soul. Hailing from Kansas City, Missouri, part of her will always have a midwestern appreciation for a genuine handshake. She is a junior at Columbia University, double majoring in English and Urban Studies. As a filmmaker and writer, Bella's work highlights the intrinsic desire for connection with others. Whether through analog photography, performance art, or film, her love of stories and people truly informs all that she does. Resilience is a constant source of inspiration for Barnes which she hopes can be felt by all who encounter her work. Propelled by an insatiable drive to question, seek, and find truth, Barnes believes in the power of sharing one’s own narrative and strength of black sisterhood. She serves as an interpreter and tech specialist for families seeking asylum with New Sanctuary Coalition, Head of Outreach for Columbia’s Organization of Rising Entrepreneurs, and is fascinated by the intersection of journalism, the arts, community, and action.
