Opening Reception Bodies on the Line: Sound, Performance, Endurance
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Featuring Simone Bailey, Chris Evans and Beatrice L. Thomas (aka Black Benatar). Curated by Rhiannon Evans MacFadyen.
The artists in this show place the black female body at the center of their practice, bringing to light the urgency, endurance, violence and magic associated with being black and female in 2019. Through live performances and broad documentation of past performances — including video recordings, photographs, objects and texts — the exhibition explores radically different approaches to understanding issues of performativity related to gender, race and queerness.
