COMPLAIN/DISAPPOINT: Hard Return: Nine Experiments For This Moment
Animated Graphics For Fine Arts Performance
Once again, I collaborated with brilliant artist and friend Autumn Knight on a series of animations for her live sculptural installation and dialogue-based performance work, Complain/Disappoint at The Neuberger Museum. The piece explores labor, vulnerability, and the extraordinary expectations placed on the workers we ask to shoulder other’s burdens while ignoring that they have their own. Check out the links below to view excerpts and animations from the project.

Short Video Series
I collaborated with Magnum Foundation and my mentor, photographer Marilyn Nance, for The Festac Memory Project, to remix a few iconic images from her Festac ‘77 photo archive and book, Last Day In Lagos, into a few videos that tell some of the stories that encapsulate the essence of that event and era.
