RAGGA x PS1 x DIS: nest
RAGGA was invited by DIS magazine to curate a room installation/ performance/ interactive space for the Back to School Benefit at MoMA PS1 . Keeping Peurto Rico, Donimica and Mexico in our hearts/ minds after them and other countries being hit by numerous hurricanes we created a "nest" of healing, art making, conversation and sister hooding. It was mad cute.
Doing some live drawing and inviting people to join her in some healing art making Tau Lewis continued to give me life n creat BEAUTY effortlessly.
“The tangibility of holding, tasting, or smelling objects and
experiencing the way this makes you feel is integral in gaining a greater understanding of your body, and a reclamation of individuals’ (especially POC women’s) health outside of the medical- and pharmaceutical- industrial complexes.” // I’m obsessed with Antonia Pérez
“Make me a Promise” — handing out info of grass root organizations working to help Puerto Rico I made a verbal bond w participants who got a RAGGA patch and photo by me in my lil oasis installation. S/O to everyone who indulged my carry lol and actually went home and donated last night or today. These islands need our help and it means a lot to me. - Christopher Udemezue (Neon Christina) xx
