Solange and Seventy States

Solange is describing her piece as an “interactive dossier”, which she projected the visuals to the Tanks Foyers’ walls. A provocative and different world created by the artist could be seen in music videos like “Cranes in the Sky” and “Don’t Touch my Hair”.

The visual remains of the creative process of the “A Seat at the Table” album released in 2016, the performance “We Sleep in Our Clothes” by Alan del Rio Oritz, which is a never-seen-before work, and two untitled poems were what the art, fashion and music pages are talking about since last Friday.

Solange reflecting Black womanhood and the themes of Black identity with her work defined “Seventy States”: “I wanted to create a specific scenography through movement and landscape to communicate my states of process through this record, I decided to do this through a visual language.”

Luckily, we can see the online project here.
