Join the Black Arts Centre at the Gallery for an afternoon of evocative performance and film.
The program features works by exhibiting artist Ogheneofegor Obuwoma alongside a performance by Chipo Chipaziwa. Obuwoma's and Chipaziwa's works highlight themes of Black identity, spirituality, and female agency. The screening will be followed by a conversation between the Black Arts Centre curator Olumoroti (Moroti) Soji-George and the two artists.
