Black Artist Research Space (BARS) - Carryin’ On… Creative Practice for Sustaining Black Life (2020)

Carryin’ On… is a timely collection of interviews, literary works, and visual art from 15 national and international Black artists, activists, and creatives. Black Artist Research Space asked each individual the following question in 2020, during the height of racial unrest and a global health pandemic: What are the key points your creative practice draws from that connect to the existence, survival, and future of Black lives? For Black Artist Research Space, the guiding intention was to unearth and directly document how the creative work of Black people centers the individual and/or communities to which they belong and furthermore show how one’s work supports the perseverance of Black lives. Posing a question that centers Black individuals and communities automatically creates space for honoring and autonomy, however this turned out to not be the sole function of the question.
