Davis (aka HAUI) to chat about his latest project: Mixed UP↑ - "Mixed UP↑ feels like the future. A mixed multimedia opus about mixed identities, whether they be racial, generational, national, or gendered. An emotional history lesson that’s also a window on human potential. Dance, animation, archival footage, painting, video testimonials, Zadie Smith quotes, text conversations, spoken word poetry, performance art of the filmmaker covered in a colour-changing membrane as if encrusted in a chameleonic crème brûlée – these are just a few of the methods used to detail and deconstruct cycles of prejudice.HAUI: https://www.instagram.com/hauidavis/MIXED UP: https://www.howardjdavis.com/mixedupAre you making some awesome art online/digital/properly distanced art?
