Arthouse PLUS+ x The Artist Temple x Lazarus X

Arthouse PLUS+ x The Artist Temple x Lazarus X ArtHouse Plus+ curates soulful, risk-taking cinema and series that challenge how Black life, desire, and intimacy are portrayed onscreen.

Lazarus X () is a filmmaker and cultural architect turning cinema into medicine through Arthouse PLUS+ and The ARTIST(s) TEMPLE — spaces where storytelling heals and creation transforms. About Lazarus X, The Artist Temple & ArtHouse Plus+:

Lazarus X () is a filmmaker, writer, and cultural architect whose body of work redefines what independent Black cinema can be. Across two

decades of filmmaking, he has cultivated a practice that merges art, autonomy, and ancestral memory — transforming personal narrative into collective healing. Through his twin platforms — ArtHouse Plus+ () and The Artist Temple ()— Lazarus has built a home for creators who see film not only as entertainment but as medicine. The Artist Temple extends that mission inward, offering a spiritual and philosophical framework for creative recovery — a multidisciplinary wellness initiative that teaches artists to sustain their creativity without losing themselves to it. To experience Lazarus X is to step inside an emotional architecture — part cinema, part confession, part resurrection. As a director, he approaches film like an act of design, arranging image, sound, and spirit into spaces of reflection and transformation. His mission is to bridge two worlds: the one where stories are told, and the one where storytellers heal. Together, ArtHouse Plus+ and The Artist Temple form an ecosystem that blurs the line between art, philosophy, and wellness — a cinematic movement dedicated to truth, emotional depth, and the reclamation of creative power.

There are parts of the journey no one glamorizes.
The moments where opportunity and survival overlap.
Where you’re “close” to the dream, but far from safety.

In this episode, I talk about being 24 years old, landing what felt like a once-in-a-lifetime internship in New York—and quietly living without stability while trying to prove myself inside an industry I believed in.

This isn’t a story about hustle.
It’s a story about what artists normalize to keep going.
About paying dues without realizing the temple is being tested.

The ARTIST(s) TEMPLE exists to name these moments—so they don’t stay buried as shame or confusion, but become lessons and clarity.
