Finished up another great pop-up! This time at the #RIMForum in Paris. Had a great time discussing aesthetic markets of blackness and the tactile politics of black hair as we had participants manipulate various textures of hair! @RIM_Network #TexturesInParis

Intersection between large detention centers and prisons? @NicoleFleetwoo2 Nothing new about prison art, but there is a difference in scale. History of captivity is a history of people making art to imagine freedom #SpatialIntimacies

@NicoleFleetwoo2: So much of the experience of black people is through punitive governance that go beyond the prison and within the prison that impacts our approach to intimacy #SpatialIntimacies

How do the everyday pieces of art that are distributed by incarcerated people figure into the work? That’s how the project began. Looking at her cousin Allan’s handmade cards. Incredibly personal. Challenging the aesthetic license #SpatialIntimacies
