My name is Morticia Godiva. I am a Black woman of trans experience, writer and performer based in New York. I strive to create an authentic narrative through literature, dance, music and performance. I am interested in the space and distance between people, and how my innate ability to transform that into something of beauty for the viewer implicitly parting the gift of empathy to all those who devour my art . Thematically, the truth of self, and our right to determine our own existence is prevalent throughout my work.

My latest work includes “Feeling Like An Orchid”, a short film that I wrote, produced, and starred in.

I’m currently on the writing team and cast in the murder mystery series Hotline.
