(cHI. {Pronounced: She} = Dr.)
cHI. Jeion (He-awn) IsaiaMona Green (They/Them) is a Gender-non-binary artist, photographer, award-winning filmmaker, and screenwriter whose practice operates as Performative Praxis - a self-directed scholarship rooted in the belief that sustained creative work, across disciplines and time, constitutes its own form of credentialing. A native of Baltimore, MD, Jeion is an independent artist whose practice centers on autoethnographic fine art - a methodology that has evolved from an earlier foundation in self-portraiture photography and performance art into a more expansive inquiry into cultural identity, memory, and lived experiences as primary source material.
Their current major collection Gesto Apparanthem (acts brought into appearance) is a gathering of in progress, finished, unfinished, and discarded works that speak coherently only when held together - anchored alongside its theoretical counterpart Voluntas Auctum (will, expanded). Within sits Project Ocean Shores a short film, video performance piece, and proof of concept inspired by Rocket Power (originating as the script How It Started and evolving into a sustained inquiry into will, authority, and representation).
Jeion holds a BFA in Photography with a minor in Film from Parsons, The New School (New York City), where they pursued graduate studies in Film and Performance Art & Theory at the same institution. They also hold a PhD in Visionary Narrative Architecture & Performative Praxis - a self-conferred doctorate from "Green University" (a university created as a part of Gesto Apparanthem), in the lineage of practice-as-research scholarship. The degree was conferred on May 18, 2026 - based on 25+ years of lived experience and 8+ years of documented study (2018-2026) in code-switching as performative praxis.
They are recognized for producing the Oscar-contending short Tribes, Flesh & Spirit, and Boys Don't Wear Dresses - led entirely by a disabled (Autistic) cast with a majority disabled and diverse crew. Television credits include Black-ish, Career Opportunities in Murder & Mayhem, Snowfall, Reasonable Doubt, The Jennifer Hudson Show, TED the series, and Unstoppable (starring Jennifer Lopez) in the Production Accessibility Department.
They also worked with Sundance Institute's Feature Film Program International team (2018 - 2019) and returned to Sundance in 2023. As a 2024 & 2025 DisAbility Belongs Entertainment Lab finalist, Jeion is a proud advocate for LGBTQ+ and disabled communities and serves on the board of the Baltimore County Art Guild.
Jeion is also the founder of Soleath, LLC - a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2023 in Los Angeles, CA. The guiding principle: the future is built by the people who return to build it.
