Exhibition | Ah New Riddim: A Marked (Black) Axiological Shift at Cuchifritos Gallery + Project Space
Can the axiologies and stories oscillating at the margins mark the discourse of Western logic positioned at the center, and how might this marking register in visual representations of the urban?
Ah New Riddim (2023) is the third and final iteration of the multimedia series Constructs and Context Relativity (2019-2023) by interdisciplinary artist Christie Neptune. The installation and interactive documentary examines the spatial-temporal relationship of memory and place embedded within the implosion of dancehall culture in East Flatbush. The film utilizes 80’s dancehall archival footage, the quiet of black subjectivity, and concentric interactive storytelling to expound the relationship between black globality and dancehall in the American urban. In a pivot around her embodied experience as a black Caribbean American, Neptune considers the potential of black popular culture in marking space.
In Ah New Riddim, concentric storytelling registers a cacophony of black perspectives. Neptune’s subjective experience in the American urban and the migration stories of community members in East Flatbush pivot around dancehall home video of Neptune’s father. Research, writing, and art produced from this series work to frame an artistic intelligence around Marked Axiological Shifts, a concept introduced by Neptune in a recent essay that defines a new language in visual culture grounded in African world-making cosmologies.
Marked Axiological Shifts are nonlinear and interactive artistic approaches that register a perpetual reimagining of black futures across space and time. It marks the decorum of modern cinema and visual culture with the conventions of African temporality to foster multiple planes of perspectives and fields of movement within concentric forward moving narratives mapped across moving images, sculpture, performance art, and print. In this exhibition, six channels of video interface with scaffolded speakers made of mirror, LED monitors, and wood. The speakers, a re-articulation of the Caribbean Sound System tradition, add further nuance to the filmic encounter in space. As material, screen, haptic surface, and sculptural unit, the sound system transmits information that doubles the spectator’s spatial perception. Upon contact, the spectator experiences temporal disjuncture caused by the collapse of their point of view, embodied form, and projected media upon the unit’s reflective surface. The gesture fosters multiple fields of viewing within a single expressive form, an element integral to African frameworks of temporality.
Ah New Riddim demonstrates the potential of black popular culture within representational practices that speaks across both dominant and marginal spatialities. This new framework of understanding considers the agency of marked axiological shifts within discursive urban space, an intervention that superimposes a wide aperture of black subjectivity(s) upon the narrow plane of the American urban.
This exhibition draws from Christie Neptune’s research paper “Ah New Riddim: A Marked (Black) Axiological Shift Across Space and Time” [READ HERE]

NY / if you surrender
Dominique Duroseau, Took dis long to get here, and i still had to whisper. Black duck cloth, contractor bag, gaffer tape, laser etched text on leather, chain, gems, pins 14"x22"
if you surrender January 7 – February 11, 2023 The gallery will be open Sat & Sun from 1pm – 6pm and by appointment
Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York is pleased to present if you surrender, a group exhibition curated by Molly Davy and Daniel Johnson, featuring works by Sophie Chalk, Edi Dai, Dominique Duroseau, Sandra Erbacher, Lisa Kill, Jasmin Risk, and Anne Clare Rogers.
The works in if you surrender explore the way bodies can be a site of translation, bridging the natural world to the inner self. Each artist uses their body to transform ideas into tangible forms, integrating themes of renewal, labor and power. Together, the works invite the viewer to reflect on the tension between intimacy and abstraction. The artists employ a range of mediums and techniques that ask viewers to let go for a little bit and see where you end up.
Sophie Chalk (b. Australia, they/them) is a transdisciplinary photographic artist working primarily with concepts of queer ecology and historical archive. Working across methods from 19th-Century historical alternative photographic processes to cameraless methods such as botanical printing and some of their own creation. Chalk’s work’s feature falsified archives of queer bodies through to ephemeral, color-shifting botanical prints created by misusing museum-grade chemistry. Their practice ultimately examines the role of the photographic in the contemporary landscape as a medium that has the potential to invite us to re-see and witness again.
Edi Dai is an interdisciplinary artist who weaves, spins, and grows small batches of naturally colored cotton, investigating the complexities hidden within objects considered to be quotidian in nature. Their practice questions how bureaucracy is used to uphold power structures that reinforce exploitative labor conditions and wage discrimination. Dai received an MFA in Painting and Printmaking from the Yale School of Art in 2019 and a BA in Studio Art from the University of California, Irvine in 2010. They are currently an Artist in Residence at 18th Street Arts Center.
Dominique Duroseau (b. Chicago) is a Newark-based artist born in Chicago, raised in Haiti. Her interdisciplinary practice explores themes of racism, socio-cultural issues, and existential dehumanization. Her exhibitions, performances and screenings include SATELLITE ART and PULSE Play, The Kitchen, The Brooklyn Museum, New Museum, El Museo del Barrio, The Newark Museum, Project for Empty Space. Her recent exhibitions and talks include: solo exhibition at A.I.R. Gallery, panelist at Black Portraiture[s] at Harvard and lecturer at Vassar. She has received artist residencies from Gallery Aferro, Index Art Center and the Wassaic Project. Duroseau holds a Bachelor of Architecture and a Master of Arts in Fine Arts.
Sandra Erbacher (b. Germany) is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in New Jersey and New York. She earned her MFA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2014) and her BFA from Camberwell College of Art (2009). She also holds a BA and MA in Sociology from Goldsmiths College, University of London. Erbacher has exhibited nationally and internationally at Cuchifritos, ISCP, Stellar Projects, the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center and the Chazen Museum of Art. Most recently, Erbacher won a Manhattan Graphics Center Scholarship (2022). She has also participated in the 2019 Artist Alliance Inc LES Studio Program and the 2017-18 Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Workspace Residency.
Lisa Kill (b. MN) makes collages and paperworks out of found materials such as receipts, dot-matrix paper and adhesive labels. Her work alludes to one-off prints which are processed with washes of inks, household chemicals and solvents. Kill received her Bachelors of Fine Arts from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2015. She currently lives and works in Saint Paul, MN.
Jasmin Risk (they/them) is a NY-based interdisciplinary artist whose work uses textiles as support and material. Risk is interested in research-creation, and the metaphoric potentials of textiles. Their work repurposes found discarded textiles, and uses knitting, felting, and mending to examine trauma and reconsider healing. They are a CFDA scholar and an MFA Textiles candidate at Parsons.
Anne Clare Rogers (b. MN) has received fellowships to such residencies as Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, MA and Ox-bow school of Art in Saugatuck, MI. Rogers holds an MFA in Sculpture from the University of Texas at Austin and currently lives and works in Baltimore, MD.
Curated by
Molly Davy (b. MN, she/her) is a writer, researcher, and educator interested in the intersection of performance and the archive. Her work focuses on the relationship between natural and built environments, and the potentialities between Environmental Science and the Humanities. Davy is Associate Director, Operations and Part-Time Faculty at Parsons School of Design | The New School. She is Visiting Associate Professor in the department of Humanities and Media Studies at Pratt Institute where she teaches in collaboration with Architecture faculty. Davy holds an MA in Media Studies and Visual Culture from New York University and a BA in Art History and Gender Studies from St. Catherine University.
Daniel AnTon Johnson (b. DE, he/him) is an artist with a diverse practice based in photography, language, film, and video. His work examines how technology shapes notions of identity within popular culture and contemporary visual media. Johnson has taught and lectured at School of Visual Arts, Adelphi University, Rutgers University-Newark, and Columbia University, and mentored teens at ICP and The Harlem School of the Arts. Johnson holds an MFA in Photography, Video and Related Media from the School of Visual Arts, and an MA in English from Washington College. He currently resides in Brooklyn.

"Yeah how about we don't post at all Leo Dicaprio, aren't you supposed to like keep a low profile or whatever? I mean don't get me wrong, I look great and so do my angles but we can keep that one in the vault. You know I have a certain image to keep up with my followers," he joked, most of his posting for the bakery. His personal account was kept extremely private and he used it mostly to like and comment on Lyla's photos. "A God?" Hernando had to laugh, if only to stop himself from saying what was on his mind. He liked to be honest with Lachlan but in moments like these he figured he'd just let the man ramble on and play out whatever fantasy had popped into his head. "I miss New York too but mostly because of the cuchifrito spots I'm missing. But hell yeah they're angry, that's what being a general person in the world is like. Not exclusive to Tonopah and you know, you could just go be a sexy CEO somewhere. I told you, politics is going to shit, might as well get out while you can. I mean, seriously, do you really want to be Mayor? That's just like asking for a bigger headache, man."

𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄: two kings casino ( fire and ice gala )
"Are you sure you want me to tag you in this one?" Lachlan questioned, frowning as he analyzed the photo they had taken. "You know me and social media don't get along, right? Don't blame me if you get canceled after this" joked, handing the phone to the other. As much as the man hated to admit it, he had genuinely found a friend in Hernando. Whether he could maintain this friendship before turning it into a competition was a very different matter. "I hope this event will calm things down for a while. Make people forget what a true nightmare this city is. The citizens are angry - almost as angry as I get when I think I was born in this place," he admitted. There was bitterness and resentment in his grin "I miss NYC. In Manhattan I'm a God"

Upcoming | Artist Talk + Performance
Join me closing night for an artist talk and interactive performance highlighting my exhibition and thesis Ah New Riddim at Cuchifritos Gallery + Project space.
Ah New Riddim (2023), is an immersive multi-channel installation and interactive documentary that examines the spatial-temporal relations of memory and place embedded within the implosion of dancehall culture in East Flatbush. The film and installation utilizes 80’s dancehall archival footage of my father, the quiet of black subjectivity, and concentric interactive storytelling to expound the relationship between black globality, and dancehall in the American urban. In a pivot around my embodied experience as a black Caribbean, I consider the potential of popular culture in marking space.
September 16, 2023m 4pm-8pm Cuchifritos Gallery and Project Space Inside Essex Market, 88 Essex St #21, New York, NY 10002

I've never seen anything like the Kan Kan Pork at any steakhouse I've ever been to. @butcherandbankernyc really has something special here. This pays tribute to the Dominican and Puerto Rican dishes you might find at Cuchifritos joints, justed bumped up a few notches with a maple glaze and apple chutney. Leftovers make for perfect bacon and egg breakfasts. .
