David Alekhuogie
B.1985, American

David Alekhuogie was born in Los Angeles, California, in 1986. He has worked in southern California for most of his career and his photography shoots have taken place in the region. His love for art began whilst he attended the University of California Berkley, where he earned a Bachelor's of Art in sociology and minored in ethnomusicology. After Alekhuogie attended Berkley, he transitioned to a career in the arts. In 2013, he worked with various publications, such as The Source, Complex, and The Fader, the latter of which was produced by Rob Stone and Jon Cohen in New York. Alekhuogie's themes primarily revolve around anti-racist rhetoric, police brutality, and contemporary issues regarding systemic inequalities. His subject matter features the urban fashion of modern African-American culture (such as sagging). As Alekhuogie notes, "Though the saggy pants style has been around for three decades, it has triggered public consternation among politicians in recent years and spurred a spate of local ordinances around the country, resulting in fines and at times prison time." His photo series, Pull Up (2017), and To Live and Die in LA (2019), both feature sagging. (Wikipedia) ...
