Black Meridian
What does it mean to be "Black"? Through sampling, appropriating, and assemblage, the sum total of this installation paradoxically narrows and expands the scope of black ontology through image, sound, and text.
Shaka Dendy is a conceptual artist, musician, and educator based in Boston. His artistic practice is a transdisciplinary pursuit of a native Black visual aesthetic with the rigor and complexities of jazz music and American minimalism. As a musician, his outfit Camp Blood was dubbed "the industrial hip-hop voice of the future" and released an eponymous EP to critical acclaim. He issues a weekly newsletter, 12 Frames per Week.
