Discover a rare opportunity to own a piece of hip-hop history through this exclusive collection featuring legendary B-boy K-Mel. This limited series of signed and numbered prints, accompanied by custom-designed apparel, celebrates the artistry of breaking and directly supports the future of the hip-hop community.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

This project goes beyond photography—it’s a movement aimed at building the world’s first hip-hop hotel and community center in New Orleans. Proceeds from each purchase will help fund a real estate venture providing housing for street performers and a space for hip-hop education. The center will offer after-school programs, financial literacy workshops, and host hip-hop-centric art galleries and community events.

By supporting this project, you contribute to the growth of a community where culture, education, creativity, and events that celebrate hip-hop culture intersect.

ABOUT THE PHOTO

Photographer, Tori Torsion describes the transitional journey in breaking as living "between the beat," where movement flows seamlessly from one foundational step to the next. In this particular body of work, Tori’s photography pays close attention to these details, capturing the rhythm and intricacies of footwork, one of breaking’s essential elements. Each photograph represents K-Mel’s unique style and distinctive form.
