“Still growing”: Ziana “Z” Pearson-Muller pushes boundaries with art
March 10, 2021
Local artist Ziana “Z” Pearson-Muller has had the phrase “still growing” in her social media bios since 2017.
“My self discovery is my main priority and I’m constantly trying to make myself into the best version of myself,” Ziana said. “I’m still growing. I have so much more to learn, and when I learn all these things … I’m able to pass it on to somebody else. Still growing, always.”
There’s no one way to describe Ziana’s art, and no single category in which to place it.

Evanston Fight for Black Lives organizer Maia Robinson said she wants all community members to feel a “sense of pride” over the community fridge EFBL will install in the upcoming weeks as well as a responsibility to take care of it.
As a form of mutual aid, she said the guiding principle for the fridge is to “leave what you can, take what you need.”
“It’s not trying to point out who’s the one in need and who’s the one volunteering,” Robinson said. “That, to me, is what mutual aid is, doing whatever you can to take care of the community. That fits well with abolition, because the whole foundation of abolition is to look after one another and not depend on the state or the government to do life-affirming things. They should, but if they’re not doing it, we can do it ourselves. We can take care of one another.”
