It’s always a pleasure to have our friend Allen Moore present audio work in our space, so it’s a great pleasure to host his exhibition Sunday Mourning throughout February in celebration of Black History Month. His recent body of work investigates both the audio and visual element of black death and black grief. His conceptual premise is to analyze the signifiers of Blackness through performative Improvisation and experimentation. Moore is driven to nurture and expand the agency of the Black Imagination.
We’ll open doors at 7pm and Allen will present an audio/visual performance at 8pm.
The event is $FREE$
