Through June 2023
3rd floor exhibition
Kemba Village is an immersive visual storytelling exhibit celebrating the resiliency of an Afrofuturistic community surviving socio-, economic- and environmental crisis on earth.
This special exhibition, curated by Kiss My Black Arts founder Rtystk, invites viewers to engage with the artist’s original works while envisioning themselves as part of a real-world social change ecosystem. The Kemba Village will be an opportunity to build community around culture, dialogue and the fulfillment that occurs by combining art, food, and music.
On display are seven new large-scale paintings (42’ x 70’) featuring African people with artifacts and three African-inspired installations honoring the African culture, architecture, marketplace, dancing and scenery.
The exhibit includes African-inspired patterns and cultural markings from various countries to embrace the basic materiality of our solidarity.
