my first experimental film VIVID SEAMS, will be an installation opening this Thursday, October 25th 7-10pm @treehouselagos ✨ as part of a two person exhibition with @rahimagambo ✨ . Rahima Gambo & Adee Roberson: The Secret Life of Plants Taking it’s title from Stevie Wonder’s album, this exhibition is the first in the avant-garden series, a composition of exhibitions and events exploring our surroundings and the [non-human] perspectives of plants, animals, earth, architecture and atmosphere. . Rahima Gambo brings her Abuja-based a walk series to Lagos. This work centers around daily explorations of the environment which then become sculptures comprised of text, drawing, photography, natural and found objects. For The Treehouse, the artist's daily walks will be remembered through site-specific sculptures installed as a temporary archive of her movements through the city. Beginning her first walk on the day of the exhibition opening, and culminating the project ten days later gives viewers a look into an ongoing process of gathering, making and activating space. . VIVID SEAMS is a performance archive that locates and memorializes black migration patterns from the south to the west in the United States. Through sculpture, site-specific installation, and sound Adee Roberson explores the profundity of black movement and the un/making of home. For this installation, the performance archive will be in conversation with environment, plants and the landscape of Lagos. Environments and kin from New Orleans, Louisiana; Pensacola, Florida; and Los Angeles, California are transmitted across the Atlantic ocean via moving image as type of future/past time travel, and ceremony of ancestral memory. .

showing new work alongside some amazing artists 💕 womxn on womxn exhibition opening this Saturday at the Los Angeles LGBT center, 4 to 7pm ✨Curated by @erinadamsart and @essenceh 💫 . In these works I focus on an archive of queer Black love. The deeply peaceful, joyful, and labor intensive process of self love. That then evokes a loving of others who are a reflection of you.

Tomorrow, August 11th, Anna Luisa Petrisko and I will perform a live activation of the Emory Douglas: Bold Visual Language exhibition @welcometolace 💫 curated by @essenceh and @dunadarina 💫 . I’ve always loved Emory Douglas’ work, so this is such an honor 🙏🏾 His iconic prints, and use of color, remind me of the importance of aesthetics in black liberation / movement work. . Using interwoven landscapes of video and sound, we will present textural abstractions on diaspora, healing, and community in conversation with Douglas’s work and legacy. . This performance coincides with the Black TED lectures that pertain to the CAVERNOUS exhibition by Young Joon Kwak & Mutant Salon. 7pm. . #EmoryDouglas #boldvisuallanguage #mutantsalon #BlackTED #blackpantherparty (at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions)

Come out to the closing of 'black is a color' tonight @charliejamesgallery . 6-9pm ✨Performances by keyon gaskin, Kenyatta AC Hinkle and I 👑✨🌷Tunes by @djjihaari 👑 . It's been such a gift to be in this exhibition! Showing work alongside people who's vision(s) are so inspiring and so necessary. . So much gratitude and love to Essence Harden, for curating that centers blackness in all of its expansiveness. Prioritizing Black women/ non-binary/ trans/ queer experience as an atmosphere. And a space/site of transmuting the constant fuckery, that is white supremacy and patriarchy, into a manifestation of black light 🖤✨✊🏿👑💕 (at Charlie James Gallery)

@gracerosarioo and I got into ACRE! A residency "devoted to employing various systems of support for emerging artist and to creating a generative community of cultural producers." This year was super competitive and we are honored to be selected as residents for the first session starting early July. . Grace and I have collaborated before in the context of Black Salt, video projections and Tropic Green performances. We are excited to dedicate this residency to the development of a new piece utilizing sound/video/object making that archives spiritual liberation, and decolonization that centers Black and indigenous narratives. We are pulling together resources to fund airfare to WI an cover other expenses while away. For $100 we will send out packages containing 2 limited edition prints, selected at random.
