Sitting with a Blind Man Trying to Describe Yellow
URe:AD TV (United Re:Public of the African Diaspora Television)
Screening Room - Michigan Theater
Sat, Mar 24, 2018 2:45 PM
URe:AD TV is a transmedia “network” produced through a global open call for media and comprising fresh, contemporary audiovisual work by and for the African diaspora. Challenging the narrow, stereotypical, and banal aspects of both popular media and art-institutional framing of Black representation, URe:AD TV grows and changes with new submissions, producing new work with artists in the cities on its tour. Curated by Shani Peters and Sharita Towne.
Yellow is an exploration into my relationship with language: limitations, frustrations, and opportunities. This performance film was inspired by themes explored in my collection of poems, Red, Cherry, Fall. – JC
