Dec 20 – Jan 23 · Chinatown
Samuel Acevedo Mykki Blanco Jamian Juliano-Villani An immersive installation, exhibition, and party with a live performance in the gallery around 9pm on December 20th by Expat (Mykki Blanco and Samuel Acevedo) Paintings by Samuel Acevedo, sculptural installation by Mykki Blanco, and a collaborative work by Mykki Blanco and Jamian Juliano-Villani A limited number of drinks provided - Mykki Blanco’s De-Colonized Cock Tales available first come first served Expat are masters of the Evangelical mosh pit. Expat is a performance in which a combination of theatrical poetry stemming from the Black Queer diaspora is combined with the goth and heavy metal musical traditions of Latin America. Bloodbath of the colonizer, reclaiming the tradition of experimental noise for the Black/Brown wo/man and hardcore queer baptisms as a rite of passage into the void. Expat is punk theatre for the masses.
