How we feel, matters. Meaning: it creates matter. It assumes form. Pain has the potential to change the very physicality of the brain. Culture, society, discourse, language, tradition. They are physical processes. Biological, even. —Alok Vaid-Menon

High Noon is pleased to present Chicago-based artist SHENEQUA’s NYC solo debut, Still Here. An Afro-Caribbean multi-disciplinary textile artist, SHENEQUA’s sculptural wall tapestries combine the labor-intensive skills of a traditional Ghanaian loom and floor loom with Black and African hair styling. Her incorporation and subsequent deconstructing of each practice creates an open system of cultural and generational conversation on identity, diaspora, sisterhood, and sacred space.
