HARRY UZOKA REMEMBRANCE DAY . Each month around the 11th I sit down to create a post to remember my great muse Harry who was senselessly murdered on Jan 11th, 2018. And each month his beautiful spirit seems to be sittin there waiting for me to come take a deep analytical look at how the world has changed since his passing. I loved this brother in life and I’ve grown to love his memory and all he represents to a newer and different level. My monthly hours of commune with Harry is hard to put into words. I thank him for constantly giving back to me personally and to the world. . HELP ME POST on the 11TH OF EACH MONTH! I encourage the many, many people around the globe who were touched by Harry Uzoka to join me on the 11th of each month in posting pics and memories of Harry. He has an extensive body of professional work from his many years in the modeling industry and I’m sure many of his friends and associates have personal pics of Harry too. Post them! Tag them! Keeping his image in the search engines is an important part of keeping his legacy and memory vital. I HATE that searches of his name are still mostly bringing up stories about his murder. Let’s balance the flow with more recently posted pics, vids & posts about our amazing brother’s life and work! . This year’s November TuTchT portraits are designed from shots in a 2012 editorial early in Harry’s career for Ones2Watch, brilliantly shot by Hiro Kimura. This editorial also featured two other young models who also became longtime TuTchTFavs: O’Shea Robertson & Jeremy Boateng. . @HarryUzoka @hirokimura @onestowatch @jezzayisreal @oshearobertson . #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #HarryUzoka #TuTchTMuse #RemembringHarry #Forevermymuse #HiroKimuraPhotography #HarryUzokaRemembranceDay #TopMaleModels #HarryUzokaTuTchT #Forerunner #HarryUzokaForever https://www.instagram.com/p/CHeUijgFMEZ/?igshid=ek6oqx68oig8

THROWBACK BROTHERS in BLUE - “Roofless” Concept Art (Tagz) . Here's another piece of blue character concept art created for my musical series in development “Roofless,” created around 2014 I think. In creating this particular glimpse of the mystical, flying B-boy character “Tagz” — a fairy-sized being who communicates only through record scratches and “levibreaking” — I drew inspiration from two of my favorite model muses: Salieu Jalloh & the late brother, Harry Uzoka. . As the stage musical is being expanded to a limited series for screen, we’ve been able to expand more of Tagz’ backstory, exploring how this magical character came to be & the role he plays in the fight for the souls of young Black brothers of the Hip hop era. . 🔵 More blue-themed throwback TuTchT joints coming in these last few days before the election. To my American fam: VOTE NOW!!!! #BlueTsunami 🌊🔵 . @LoJoWerkz @TuTchTig @SalieuJalloh22 @HarryUzoka #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #VOTE #ThrowbackBrothersinBlue #Roofless #LoJoWerkz #RooflessthaMusical #Tagz #RooflessConceptArt #SalieuJalloh #HarryUzoka #BrothersinBlue #SalieuJallohTuTchT #HarryUzokaTuTchT #AmericasMustVoteElection #CorrectiveElection #VoteEarly #BlueTsunami #VOTEVOTEVOTE https://www.instagram.com/p/CG_DH7rFXF8/?igshid=1195643t8nxha

REMEMBERING HARRY UZOKA . Here’s the third installment of my TuTchT Comics Casting portrait of my brother Harry as super hero of color “Batwing.” As one of my greatest muses, I had several different options of images of Harry as Batwing in my files. As it turned out, my Comics Casting collabo with a Harry proved to be my last. His senseless murder took him from us only months later. For the past two years I’ve revisited those unused options.and, as ever, Harry lights up the room & ignites my imagination. His hard-to-describe powers of communicating volumes through a simple, wordless image are still in full effect. Thank you, brother. . ——- MORE COMICS CASTING PORTRAITS are on the drawing board, nearing completion. To read about why I engage in the yearly practice of creating portraits of models of color costumed as superheroes of color, you can scroll back through my posts. Its a fun, fanboy kind of practice, but with a deep-rooted purpose at its core. . It’s been a mad busy couple months here in the TuTchT/LoJoWerkz lab as I’m working around the clock to bring our musical based on the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, “A Song of Greenwood” to audiences in 2021. The “Comics Casting” series, as inconsequential as it may appear of the surface, is an important tradition of my purpose. So stay tuned for the rest of the week. . . @HarryUzoka @dccomics #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #HarryUzoka #RememberingHarry #GreatestMaleModels #TopMaleModelsofColor #TuTchTComicsCasting #ModelPortraits #HarryUzokaTuTchT #TopModelsofColorCastasSuperherosofColor #Batwing #TuTchTModelPortraits #CostumingtheModels #KingUzoka #HarryUzokaRemembranceDay #HarryUzokaForever https://www.instagram.com/p/B59MqixFZ5e/?igshid=reppfz0py1cp

HARRY UZOKA REMEMBRANCE DAY . “…but braver angels” . This piece is the result of another invaluable communion with my brother muse on the 11th of this month. The memory of someone unjustly taken from you is a particularly powerful kind of magic. Thank you, Harry. (I drew visual inspiration from a 2015 editorial for Notion Magazine entitled “When We Were Kids” put together by Ayishat A Akanbi with photography by photog Vincent Dolman. The shoot also featured poet/emcee Kojey Radical who Harry also turned me onto.) @HarryUzoka @vincentdolman @ayishat_akanbi @notion @TuTchTig . #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #HarryUzoka #TuTchTMuse #RememberingHarry #HarryUzokaRemebranceDay #GroundbreakingModels #HarryUzokaTuTchT #Forerunner #butbraverangels #HarryUzokaForever https://www.instagram.com/p/CFELrkvlB_6/?igshid=6hdwpsc7p5u9

HARRY UZOKA REMEMBRANCE DAY. . The 11th of each month seems to roll around much quicker in these odd times. I haven’t been on social media much this past month but as hectic (and CRAZY) as these world-changing, rebuilding times have become, the hours I’ve set aside 12 times a year to honor my muse has become a unique kind of respite and reflection. . Harry’s vibrant, inquisitive, forward-thinking mind has come to represent so much to me in his absence. I would tell him he was “the future.” - the depth of that insight is mind-blowing. I would love to pick his brain on the many changes the world has gone through in 2020 and remind him again of his forerunner status. In many ways his career moves were laying the groundwork for the worldwide BLM movement which would follow. . I often feel Harry leaning in to observe what’s going on in the world today; intently analyzing, making witty observations & wise speculations. I chose the somber, thoughtful Harry for this month’s portrait but I’ve no doubt today’s historic announcement of Kamala Harris as Biden’s running mate in the US Presidential corrective Election would have brought out Harry’s world-famous smile. .

HARRY UZOKA REMEMBRANCE DAY Keepin it simple and clear this month. Black and White… for a reason, of course. . Harry had that proverbial twinkle in his eye that always seemed to say, “Chill bruv. Just enjoy.” His power to magically ease stress lives on in his images. Feel it? What a gift. Miss you, brother. Thank you for leaving so much of yourself around for times like these. .

REMEMBERING HARRY UZOKA. My commemorative Harry Uzoka post this month is the 3rd portrait I’ve created of Harry as DC Comics Superhero “Batwing,” a collaboration that was begun only months before his senseless murder nearly 2 years ago (scroll back to view it & read a few more thoughts.) . Miss you, my brother. Thank you for allowing your timeless spirit to linger around the TuTchTlab. You’ve always had a home here, you ardy know. . A couple more portraits of models of color as superheroes of color will drop over the next two days to complete this year’s additions to the timeless model squad. And, of course, I’ll continue to drop some work (throwback & newly created) featuring Harry on the 11th of each month. . . . @HarryUzoka @dccomics #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #HarryUzoka #RememberingHarry #GreatestMaleModels #TopMaleModelsofColor #TuTchTComicsCasting #ModelPortraits #HarryUzokaTuTchT #TopModelsofColorCastasSuperherosofColor #Batwing #TuTchTModelPortraits #CostumingtheModels #KingUzoka #HarryUzokaRemembranceDay #HarryUzokaForever https://www.instagram.com/p/B59O35vFwp-/?igshid=5kac0dkljlzx

REMEMBERING HARRY UZOKA . My last collabo with Harry was for my Halloween TuTchT Comics Casting series. (Where i costume a couple of my favorite models of color as superheroes of color.) Just a matter of weeks later he was murdered. The emotions still get a lil raw when this time of year rolls around. My brother is still just as much my muse as ever...I pulled out my rough drafts of Harry as Batwing a few days ago. I’m currently completing another one of my unused options & drop it in the coming weeks. . @HarryUzoka @dccomics #TuTchT #TuTchTIMAGING #ThruTuTchTEyes #HarryUzoka #RememberingHarry #GreatestMaleModels #TopMaleModelsofColor #TuTchTComicsCasting #ModelPortraits #HarryUzokaTuTchT #TopModelsofColorCastasSuperherosofColor #Batwing #TuTchTModelPortraits #CostumingtheModels #KingUzoka #HarryUzokaRemembranceDay #HarryUzokaForever. https://www.instagram.com/p/B4vw9Igl6G3/?igshid=1a6x1aouula2s
