About this event

  • 2 hours 30 minutes

Join us at The GREYSTONE Collective for The BLACK Domestic Living & Dining Roomscapes Reading Time, personal readings by Artist & Writer | Talia Kimberly Wright. The BLACK Domestic | Living Room is a place family gathers to engage cultural enrichment through conversations + literature. Utilizing memory, word, and material object, Wright's work aims to bridge the gap between the ancestral, traditional, and regenerated lives of African Americans who have been a part of the Great Migration.

As a poetry and prose Writer, Wright is interested in the ways physicality aids us in tactile processing. Creating objects using fiber, ceramics, or paint, to speak life into written word on the page. Storytelling provides physical examples, experiences, and textures that represent a journey––a way to process intergenerational movement, healing, and resolve. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity for an immersive experience exploring the cultural significance of literature in The BLACK Domestic Living Roomscape.
