Conductions: Black Imaginings
Conductions: Black Imaginings, curated by Jaleesa Johnston, took inspiration from the process of “conduction” in Ta-Nehisi Coates’ novel, “The Water Dancer.” Coates proposes that engaging past stories and histories via emotionally charged objects – racial stereotypes and symbolism - is an important pathway towards new futures.
My art is subversive. Subversion ridicules power. When racist symbolism is dismantled, it can no longer be considered tool of disempowerment. Accordingly, if something is dismantled, it can be destroyed. This proactive methodology is the first step toward building an autonomous and empowered individual identity.

Conduction: An Intervention
I facilitated a group dialogue in which my art was used to explore the language of oppression and identity in American society, particularly regarding how we relate to one another collectively and individually.
