The Poet

Kamau Abayomi is an expression of the cosmic dance. He is a modern mystic, born in the vibrant tapestry of San Francisco and Oakland, California. For over 30 years, he has been more than an artist; he has been a conduit, a reminder to that life, at its core, is art in motion—a performance of the universe expressing itself through human form. Through a powerful presence in silence and stillness and through expressions of esoteric poetry, music, dance, and visual art, Kamau invites others not merely to observe but to participate in the unfolding of their own being.

His poetic voice resonated in the late 90’s - early 2000’s golden era of San Francisco and Oakland, California’s poetry scene; earning him the title of ‘Best Poet’ in the 1999 Oakland slam finals, and it has carried him to twice win the International Ubud Writers & Readers Festival Poetry Slam in Bali. His words do not simply decorate the air; they remind you that language is a vibration—a pulse that reconnects you to the essence of existence.

The Poet’s Journey.

Kamau’s journey is both external and deeply inward. His studies in self-knowledge began at the age of 18, where he dived deep into African and African American spiritual studies, rituals and ceremonies. At age 22, he began to focus in on African spirituality as was expressed in ancient Egypt. After two and a half years immersed in this learning, he began to intensify his metaphysical studies, leading him to begin having out-of-body experiences. Desiring to learn more about what was happening to him, he attended and completed Robert Monroe’s Gateway Voyage program at the renown Monroe Institute in 2003. A month later, Kamau would begin his travels to Asia, including Bali, where he has been based for two decades. In Bali, he would share his diverse range of artistry and become a founder of a youth arts organization ‘True Creative Activity’ and co-founder of the Bali Hip-Hop Community. He would also directly mentor, manage and choreograph Bali breakdancing group Aerial Crew, guiding them into Indonesia’s first national championship winners.

Kamau has traversed the landscapes of consciousness, creative arts and energy arts with the eyes of both a seeker and a guide. As a cultural creative visionary, certified White Tiger Qi Gong instructor and a scholar of scriptural Buddhist migrations from Harvard, he embodies the paradox: the simplicity of being and the profundity of experience.

From this place of depth emerged Tuluvi Arts in 2019, born after 28 days immersed in meditation and mantra. Tuluvi is more than an artistic endeavor; it is an invitation to remember—to touch that luminous thread that binds us to the stars, to the song of creation. Through Tuluvi Arts, Kamau beckons others to explore the creative force within themselves, to see art not as an act of doing, but as an expression of being.

In Kamau’s world, there is no separation between art and spirit. His work is a call to pause and notice the dance of life unfolding around and within you, to awaken to the realization that each moment, each breath, is an opportunity to step into the grand play and rediscover your own boundless nature.
