I am Asia Mark-a multidisciplinary artist and storyteller from Detroit. ✨

Throughout my life, I’ve been passionate about many aspects of the arts. Growing up in a culture where boxes and categories bring people comfort, I often felt misaligned- like no single facet of my artistry made sense without the others.

For years, I searched for ways to integrate it all and truly ground my work.

When I started my photography business in 2009, I began to wonder how it could one day merge with my other creative practices: music, theatre, healing arts, and teaching.

I’ll be honest… my journey has felt like an initiation. From the outside, it may have looked like I was bouncing between paths, but the whole time, something deeper was taking shape.

After years of working as a photographer, theatre artist, musician, and teaching artist, I’ve finally arrived at a place of integration.

MarkVisionLab is that space.

A space for multifaceted individuals to explore the many ways their story wants to be expressed.

Whether that looks like:

🎭sharpening your acting skills to feel free on stage
🔮exploring your inner world through astrology or personal readings
📸or bringing a vision to life through a creative shoot

MarkVisionLab exists to support you in connecting deeply with who you are and what you feel called to step into.

I’m honored to walk with you on that journey.

MarkVisionLab.com

Follow @markvisionlab to join in on the exploration 😆🧪⚡️

This mercury retrograde was 🤦🏾‍♀️😭🫠
Most DEF another initiation. I found myself at the crossroads of giving up on my dream and trying to find another route out of fear that I was not moving in the ”right” direction OR to continue on despite the obstacles.
I found myself thinking that maybe it actually isn’t fully possible to navigate motherhood and follow my dreams without one of those aspects of my life failing miserably- and the thoughts were eating away at me. 😭

I found myself in a weird place- especially as retrograde brought up old thought patterns and habits-

but I was reminded of a more recent mindset that I’ve been practicing.

There are a lot of things in life that I can’t control but I DO have control over whether or not I decide to go after the things that have been put on my heart- the desires that have never left me.

It’s easy to feel like something is too hard- or fear the unknown or the unconventional path and back down. Sometimes I also allow “rejection” to serve as proof that motherhood and artistry can’t coexist in the way that I believe that it can. Sometimes it feels easier to believe that and to find another path.

But fuck all that 😂 I would rather give everything and fail miserably than let self doubt control the outcome of my life.

No, I don’t know all of the details of the how- but I have a pretty clear idea of my WHY- and I am actively choosing to stay grounded in my purpose. I don’t have the answers and no, I don’t know what surprises my life has in store for me, but I DO have the courage to remain faithful in my ability to tune into what it is that I am being asked to do and I am learning to be consistent and disciplined enough to do it all. 💛

Sometimes I feel like like my insides are ripping apart 🫠 and then I remember God gave me medicine. I wrote ‘Realigned’ in 2023 and found it in my voice notes (which is basically my audio diary 😂)
It was healing bringing this song out of the drafts. Grateful for remembrance and for the art to hold the big emotions- it always realigns me and reminds me that the other side is waiting for me and the journey through the mess is worth who I become as I move through it.

With Jupiter in Leo conjunct my Chiron in Leo in the 3rd house 🫠, I’m continuing to navigate sharing my voice in all capacities- writing, singing and speaking. Some days it feels really hard but I am grateful for this transit for expanding what is possible and reminding me that healing is always available to me, that my voice matters and that Gods medicine is meant to be shared. 🤍

A recent post by @blckgirlnarrative inspired me to free write about my experience with cleaning as a Black woman. It was such a profound piece for Black women and what processing through cleaning can look like. It made me think more about my grandmothers and my complicated relationship to work & cleaning specifically.

It hit me deep because I’ve been on my own journey with slowing down and noticing the places where I rage out in secret. Cleaning has always been one of those sneaky things that disguises what’s really going on inside of me. Therapy has been helping me catch those moments. Coming up on the New Moon in cancer, (as a Cancer moon) I’ve been reflecting a lot on what real care for myself looks like. For most of my life I thought cleaning was a part of my care package but that’s only true when I’m not getting lost in it. As I’ve been reexamining my relationship with all the coping mechanisms in my life, cleaning has been one that has required a lot more thought and intention in this season of my life.

Thank you @blckgirlnarrative for always sharing such beautiful and thought provoking pieces. It means a lot as a Black woman in the world. 💛

Disney songs on the looper is my fav thing 😄

The looper is my favorite place to practice harmonies. One thing I can do is stack some harmonies- one thing is that I can’t do is tell you much about them 😂 (yet 😄)

I have never studied music in a reading music/ super technical sense but I have always been a lover of music, composition, arrangement and sound. It has led me to many stages singing, sharing my voice and doing what I love.

Don’t let the technicals keep you from doing what you love.

There are many unique ways to learn what you want to know. There are many ways to become a master at what you know. Creating with others, listening to lots of music and playing on my looper are some of the ways I like to learn.

Art, play and exploration are here to bring us joy and share that joy with others. I like to remind myself that there is no right or wrong way to do that 💛

Last month Nate and I were both awarded for our artistry on the same night and it has been one of those things that I have been processing for a minute.

It’s so wild to think back to those quiet moments as young adults wondering what life will be- what starting a family would look like- if our dreams would ever come true. If our prayers would be heard- if our hard work would mean anything- if our footsteps would make an impact in the world. There are many moments that are full of unknowns and we are very used to walking those moments- but every now and then there are these really beautiful moments- after years of walking when the quiet moments answer back in loud ways. When the wondering turns into knowing. I am so proud of those kids that we used to be, grateful for who we are and excited about who we are growing into.

There are years that feel difficult and years that say: this is what that was all for. I am just feeling so blessed to be able to witness life unfold. I’m grateful to have more patience than I had and more faith in what’s to come. Feeling grateful to everyone who loves and supports us throughout this journey. It’s def a wild and unconventional one but I am so excited to be along for the ride 🥹💛 taken in North Carolina by @asiamaymark
