Liberation Noir Opening Reception

Modus Locus presents new prints of digital photography alongside projected short films by Ja’Mon Kimbrough (aka @ariesfirebomb on IG) in Liberation Noir.

Join us for the opening reception on June 1 from 7-10pm featuring a special DJ set and important announcements from the artist, snacks, and beverages!

Kimbrough’s “slice of life” style of photography aims to show the faceted aspects of what it means to black in this world while evoking raw emotions and telling stories through single frames. In a statement on his work, Kimbrough says “As a queer black man, I want to show not only the queer community, but the black community that we can celebrate each other in everything that entails. From our fashion, to religion, to our beauty and our flaws, we are worth being celebrated and appreciated and we must start doing that with each other more often. I hope that my photos can be the kindling to stoke that fire.”
