On this episode of Campus Drive with Matt Jackson on Dragon Media Podcasts at Howard Community College, Columbia-born and DC-based multidisciplinary artist Trap Bob (Tenbeete Solomon) reflects on the roots that shaped her creative journey.

She discusses how her family’s influence and even unexpected classes guided her toward new ways of seeing and making, why she uses art as a way of asking questions, and what sustains her creative drive. Her work spanning murals, digital illustration, and animation has been recognized by institutions and brands including NASA, Warner Bros, Refinery29, Pabst Blue Ribbon, and Major League Soccer, and she continues to shine as one of the DMV’s most distinctive voices in visual art.
