PORTALS: Traversing Black Continuums (Closing Celebration)

PORTALS: Traversing Black Continuums is a journey through time, space, generations, and dimensions! A multi-disciplinary work, PORTALS interweaves dance, sound, video, and craft into a fully immersive installation that is transportive and transformative.

PORTALS is about exploring how mundane, everyday objects serve as gateways through the continuum of the Black experience. While this project is intended to be experienced and enjoyed across race and culture, the bridging of Black experiences—across space and time—is at the center. Therefore, we center the Black community in the cultivation and development of the ever-evolving work.

This is the first collaboration of Dancer/Choreographer Kendra J. Ross, Participatory Art Artist and Wellness Coach Ziedah Diata, and Multi-Disciplinary Artist Pia Monique Murray, all local Bed-Stuy artists who are part of the Bailey's Cafe family. We are excited to present their excerpted exhibition in the Backroom Gallery, and this opportunity to meet the artists and learn more about the ever-evolving project.
