Black Glove: Androgynoire

Description: Black Glove: Androgynoire is about reaching through the body to initiate androgynoire, a conjured Black genderqueer identity. This work recognizes that there are layers of change, palimpsests of the self. All of which we hope to speak in one resounding voice, but which harbor newly examined, newly released or newly noticed selves in times of transformation.

Testimony

Coups in Daylight

Description: Coups in Daylight critically assesses the role of formal institutions in manufacturing states of emergency and fear as a means of social control. This video work weaves everyday audio and visuals imagery including highly policed public spaces (train stations, airports), juxtaposed against natural landscapes to reveal a psychopolitical sleight of hand and its consequences.
