The Southern Oracle

SLIPPAGE Presents

An AfroFuturist Invention at the North Carolina Museum of Art

In this AfroFuturist invention, SLIPPAGE artists take on an otherworldly affect dancing toward the startling Heather Hart interactive sculpture Southern Oracle: We Will Tear the Roof Off.

Moving in fits and heaves, barely moving and then rushing forward in dance, the Afro-explorers fulfill their mission: having explored the Earth, they reassemble to lift off to the outer-regions of an Afro-centric planetary garden.
