FLOAT
 Leasho Johnson, Marlon James, Rodell Warner, Deborah Anzinger



New Local Space collaborates with Transformer in the presentation of group exhibition FLOAT in Washington, DC. In the contemporary moment, “the nation” dominates much Caribbean image-making, often posited as a post-colonial response to oppressive, externally- derived constructions. This focus is shifted by the artists in FLOAT, and further curated into a détournement in which these hegemonic conceptions of social and national identity (and the status of “margin” itself) are declared compromised and inadequate. The proposed exhibition posits a renegotiation of identity; untethered by the limits normally placed on that now over-worked concept, and insistent on the recognition of the invisible but central role that the “margins” play in the making of our cosmopolitan present and future.

Curated by Nicole Smythe-Johnson.
