About the work:
“Rain” is an artistic intervention into the overwhelmingly perpetual images of Black male death that is currently hyper-visible in Philadelphia. Rain centers DANCE IQUAIL!’s ethos of Blackness and Joy to materialize a real-time spiritual journey for both the artist and audiences that invokes God, builds community, and celebrates life.
