Black Blossoms, an art organisation that operates as an expanded curatorial platform and online art school, providing courses and workshops exploring various aspects of contemporary art with a focus on diversity and inclusivity.
The groundbreaking creative organisation is bringing its inclusive art programming to Late at Tate, showcasing work centred around diasporic identities. The theme of the night is Flourish. The theme of “Flourish” for the Late, is particularly significant in relation to, “The Unfinished Conversation” a display curated by Aicha Mehrez. This display and works on view pay tribute to the work of Stuart Hall, one of the most influential thinkers of our time, whose ideas on race, identity, and culture have shaped contemporary thinking in the field of cultural studies.
We Were fortunate enough to hold workshops with our curated playlist in the Art Now room with artwork by Rosie Hastings and Hannah Quilain fresco paintings fresco painting to depict street scenes showing groups of people portraying various power dynamics, class and social relations and positions of authority, they challenge viewers to question what public space looks like.
