Performance Art by Malachi Parsons

Worship Seat Still_edited.jpg

The tale of Dina-Bhadri, Indian Dalit folktale heroes who champion ecological stewardship, is symbolically revived through a puja worship ceremony performed for a cyclist
enduring a prolonged, meditative ride on a stationary bike sculpture.

When a film crew, rapper, and their entourage attempt to complete the production of a drill rap music video, the bounds of an unspoken algorithm/algorhythm fragments their actions, redefine 'Americanness', and reimagine mourning through rap's disobedient, unruly body.
