Ayibobo🇭🇹✊🏾))) excited and honored to evoke “Ritual Merging” tomorrow 8pm!!! @roulette_intermedium @risharox @renegadepg @taraanicolas @newmusicusa Sound artist Val Jeanty and performance artist Risha Rox—two Caribbean American artists whose work explores the diaspora, death, the ancient past, and an envisioned future—present the world premiere of their Roulette 2019 NYSCA Commissioned piece, Ritual Merging. A powerful ritual with the black body in focus as a nexus of breathwork, movement, projection, sound, and visuals, Ritual Merging blends Jeanty’s soundscape and projection work with Rox’s live painting of human canvases. Ritual Merging is informed by the legacies of Haitian Voodoo, Jamaican Pukumina, New Orleans funeral processions, Americana, Afro-Caribbean carnival, Black speculative fiction, and the creative energy of Afrofuturism. It creates a complex Bardo-like dichotomy evaluating mortality and immortality, despair and joy, past and future, and the literal surface and figurative core as a means to inspire reflection, reverence, and most of all, action. #staycreative #soundchemist #afroelectronica #vodouelectro #valjeanty #risharox #residency #ritualmerging #roullette #haiti #jamaica #nyc #gede #kwa #sunhouse #occidejeantylegacy #awochenago #honoringourancestors #evoke #kitewangamaché #lifepurpose #vodounotvoodoo #empower #knowyamagic #masteryacraft (at Roulette) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5JFZ0BHRbQ/?igshid=1l5kettzjdf9i
