#RP and also please stop by and check out the work. Up until June 18th, viewing days are Saturdays 12-4pm. @thenicholsonproject ・・・ Have you seen "Blackness and the Infinite Potential Well" by our previous artist-in-residence Kokayi (@kokayi)? ⚡️​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ In “Sit:com (sit/calm),” a series of framed works in the style of movie posters and television show advertisements, Koyaki presents familiar imagery and ideas remixed for the current times. Via this cultural mashup, he substitutes black television characters with iconic national and global leaders situating them not merely in an historical context of heroism but paying homage to their lasting impact and sacrifices in the present and fraught political and social climate.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ You can read more about his exhibition, "Blackness and the Infinite Potential Well" on our website. Come by for a visit now through June 18th. Gallery hours are Saturdays 12-4pm and by appointment.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ ID: Two framed works from the “Sit:com (sit/calm)” series featured in Kokayi's exhibition, “Blackness and the Infinite Potential Well”.​​​​​​​​ ​​​​​​​​ #TheNicholsonProject #TNPArtists #WashingtonDC #TNPGallery #NicholsonGallery #202Creates #DC #DMV #ACreativeDC #ByThings #Ward7DC #Ward7 #SoutheastDC #DCArts #sculpture #kokayi (at The Nicholson Project) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdLBo99OO1O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My cosmic girl at the new Femme Fatale DC Pop Up shop ✨💫🌟💓#bpeppersart Experience the magic at 401 Massachusettes Ave NW Washington, D.C. I’m so grateful to @femmefataledc for this opportunity! The pop up looks amazing, the work of so many womxn creatives and entrepreneurs has blossomed into such a magical space🔮 You’ve gotta go inward, to experience the outer space that was built for you💫✨💜 This was only my second large scale piece so I was so nervous, but I’m feeling so fulfilled right now. I am a ball of anxiety but creating really helps ease that and being able to do things like this just radiates the passion I have to keep going and creating. •
