[2021 art dump2] "Where Home Is" was an immersive theatrical experience about the immigration experience staged in a multi-level parking garage presented by @liveartsmiami. The show ran for 3 nights in early December. New works are always equally fun and challenging to uplift, and this was no different. Big shout out to @juraj.kojs for the vision and @luisabuitrago_r @lacatali & @gladysactsout for the experience and determination to make this happen! It was a pleasure working with you all! 💜🤜🤛 #artworks #theater #producer #immersive #immersiveart #theater #miami #mdc #liveartsmiami @mdcwolfson https://www.instagram.com/p/CYHg_LorKji5ZD6DyWrJUVOWOpN_U2rWfYICTA0/?utm_medium=tumblr

In the lab! Spent a lot of time at my desk this past year creating and producing art works. Feeling continually inspired by the talented artists and friends that surround me. Avid Arts is not only my company name, but my motto! Peace y'all...have a blessed weekend! ✌️🎛️🌴 S/O to @theightsphoto for swinging thru, a true artist himself. 📸 #studio #twork #creativelove #musicmaking #art #projects #design #bass #EraPerspectiva #korg #fender #thelab (at Blue Planet 2100) https://www.instagram.com/p/COTLz2jrh3E/?igshid=zqgcbhn6ropa

✴️ Tomorrow! 2.19.21 ✴️ ARTIST BIO: Eddy Rivera Davis is a Miami-based songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist. His debut album 'Era Perspectiva' unveils the artist’s post-progressive pop sensibility, a sound that synthesizes elements of electro, rock, and urban music within modern compositions that feature eclectic, non-traditional arrangements and instrumentation.  The glossy 6 song set caresses yet challenges the listener with its differing styles, while showcasing the artist's knack for syncopation and lush harmonic vocal passages - both constants throughout the album. As the title suggests, 'Era Perspectiva' emerges from a period of deep reflection for the artist in 2020 - a dramatic time in America that featured the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak, a social uprising, and the polarizing politics of an election year - all of which created "a much-needed impetus to reflect, create and respond musically,” says Rivera Davis.  Along with personal love loss, the album’s lyrical content flirts with these weighty topics including establishment politics on "Imprism" and the forces of big data on “Trolls of the Deep Web,” when the artist sings “stop trolling me, you can’t control me” in tongue-in-cheek fashion, followed by a more somber “...somewhere down the road, we’ll just be pons in a private show...suck it ‘Zuck, Bill Gates, Macintosh...don’t want you to know.” 'Era Perspectiva' is the artist’s debut solo release after two decades of writing, arranging and performing with South Florida alternative bands Outereach, @addaxmusic, JESP and @problemkids305. #EraPerspectiva #newmusic #songwriter #miami #southflorida #progressive #pop #music #artrock #artist #statement (at Miami, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLc4scUrCyY/?igshid=1o4gqxj3kyefq

Basel throwback. Where does time go? PS-14 gave us a platform to host monthly art shows at a time when Miami and its artists needed it. Every night was insane and bursting w. creative energy. The experience was formidable in everything I do and create to this day. 🕴️ Shout-out to my Outereach brothers, @notorious_nastie @alexyanes & everyone tagged who are still doing their thing! _____ #12years #miami #artbasel #art #music #indiemusic #streetart #overtown #miamiart #ps14 #poplife (at PS 14) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIe-SRWLhAjX2GohQREaJYUkXml_06SW_gNzuQ0/?igshid=1bao77h1e8s7v

Done. @beanartshero is a grassroots campaign organizing nationwide for more funding for our arts & culture industry, which contributes BIG time dollars to the US and FL's GDP. Many artists and orgs are struggling right now like so many. To join the ask, check out the steps and great resources on their website. Deadline is Aug 1st before next Senate decision! 🗯️ Thank you @beanartshero _ _ #advocate #arts #culture #movethemoney #covidrelief #artists #actors #producers #techs #artsorgs (at Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC02CYxA4ju/?igshid=mnas82vrs4jb

Honored to have served today on the International Cultural Partnership (ICP) grant panel funded by Miami-Dade County Cultural Affairs. The grant provides support to arts orgs for cultural exchange programs abroad. It's always fascinating to read through all the exciting proposals, but tough to only select the best. Congrats to these 6 orgs that were recommended for full funding. Thank you @au_roxana for reaching out! It was a pleasure to serve the community again. #avidarts #service #arts #miami #panelist #grants #grantwriting #advocacy #volunteer #culture #funding #supportthearts #covid #dance #theater #poetry #music #international (at Miami-Dade County, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCZwdjuAfVZ/?igshid=11qa0esdkpi6e

Can you imagine it? I can't! And for me this applies across the arts & entertainment world... Yes, that includes your favorite actor on Netflix, hip-hop artist, music festival, etc. etc. One feeds the other.

Hard to believe this was 2.5 months ago. Simpler times of convening, sharing and rejoicing in the freedom to create - even outdoors. (That suddenly sounds so far off!) Really enjoyed working on @pioneerwinter Grass Stains project this year hosted by @mdclivearts. So many phenomenal artists - miss you all. Take me back!
