🙏🏿 to everyone who came out Thursday evening in #London for the preview and conversation with @aindreaemelife in celebration of the opening of #ghostsofempires. My first show in #London! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳 We had a packed 🏠. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 Hopefully it opens up the door for a truly timely conversation highlighting the need to reevaluate, reframe and dismantle notions of Empire, colonialism, imperialism. Moreover, exploring how these issues impact us all whether you know it or not. Special thx to @misskatywick x @ktwlondon x @benbrownfinearts. 🙏🏿 To @tammowhammo x @dueyart for your insights.
