Izere Antoine and Sesse Elangwe at the Metropolitan Mueseum of Manila.

We are pleased to report Izere Antoine and Sesse Elangwe's participation in "Sounds of Blackness" at the Metropolitan Museum of Manila, BGC, Philippines. 

 

“Sounds of Blackness” is a group exhibition curated by Larry Ossei-Mensah featuring an ensemble of visual artists from the African Diaspora whose practices articulate a multiplicity of ideas and perspectives through various mediums. Inspired by the Grammy-award winning and U.S. based musical ensemble of the same name, the exhibition showcases artworks that stimulate the senses-similar to how music’s vibratory capacity impacts its listeners.”
