Mosijah Roye: The Gen Z Project

Who’s Documenting Gen Z? …Mosijah Roye.

The Cleveland Print Room invites you to Zygote Press on February 23rd for The Gen Z Project presented by NY photographer @mozijah. This project was a study of Generation Z’s mindset toward their future career endeavors as they moved toward graduation. Mosijah began with thought-provoking questions to students like, “How does what you aspire to do inspire or produce change in the world?” Interviewing almost 60 students in his high school Mosijah decided to choose 30 students and expand on his idea encouraging students to bring in props that were significant to their career goals to create captivating images of every student who participated.

Following the opening of The Gen Z Project Mosijah will be taking pictures and holding an artist talk on Saturday, February 24 from 12 – 4 P.M at Zygote Press. Mosijah opens this time up to learn more about him and his practice as a professional photographer in his generation and to interact with other Gen ZRs to take photos with props and ask the question “How does what you aspire to do inspire or produce change in the world?” as he continues documenting the present-future of this generation

The Gen Z Project is generously supported by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture and the Ohio Arts Council.
