“If fluid was a song, it would never end, we’d always listen, feel, and be moved.
Fluidity is persistence, like water that cannot be contained.
The featured artists explore unique ways to have conversations about identity, resistance, and the mundane while seeping through the boundaries of materials and societal norms. Listen to what you see and then listen again.”
