ROOBI STARLA GASKINS
APRIL 29 - MAY 10

" I am currently working to expand a project titled “Black (W)hole Theories” into a larger scale performance study inclusive of movement and textile creations. During this residency I hope to further excavate a portion of my study that looks towards ideas of the underground, via hip hop and deep house music (Ka like flows and Larry Heard type-sounds respectively), as entryways to self-express, self-define, challenge, root, embrace collective consciousness, and ultimately work to continue liberating the complexities of blackness beyond the confines often prescribed to it.
