#notwhite collective

OUR LOVE OF CHOCOLATE, ART, AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

ON FEBRUARY 14TH, THE #NOTWHITE COLLECTIVE WILL CELEBRATE SIX YEARS OF SISTERHOOD, ARTISTIC FELLOWSHIP, AND CONTINUED WORK TO DECOLONIZE OURSELVES AND THE ARTS SECTOR. PURCHASE A BOX OF SIX GOURMET TRUFFLES TO SUPPORT OUR VISION AND PROGRAMMING. FROM MOLE TO LAVENDER-EARL GREY, THE FLAVORS SPAN THE GLOBE, SHOWING HOW INTERCONNECTED INGREDIENTS COME TOGETHER IN THE FORM OF CHOCOLATE. TRUFFLES WERE HAND-MADE BY MEMBERS OF THE COLLECTIVE, IN FELLOWSHIP WITH PROFESSIONAL CHOCOLATIER, BENJAMIN BISHOP. THANK YOU TO SPREZZATURA FOR PROVIDING THE SPACE TO CREATE. THE #NOTWHITE COLLECTIVE IS A GROUP OF 13 WOMEN ARTISTS WHOSE MISSION IS TO USE NON-INDIVIDUALISTIC, MULTI-DISCIPLINARY ART TO MAKE OUR STORIES VISIBLE AS WE RELATE, CONNECT, AND BELONG TO THE GLOBAL MAJORITY.

THE #NOTWHITE COLLECTIVE IS A GROUP OF 13 WOMEN ARTISTS WHOSE MISSION IS TO USE NON-INDIVIDUALISTIC, MULTI-DISCIPLINARY ART TO MAKE OUR STORIES VISIBLE AS WE RELATE, CONNECT AND BELONG TO THE GLOBAL MAJORITY.

WE ARE BI/MULTI-RACIAL/CULTURAL, IMMIGRANT OR DESCENDANTS OF IMMIGRANTS INVESTIGATING THE MANY WAYS WE ARE SEEN OR NOT SEEN, HOW WE SELF-IDENTIFY AND HOW WE SEEK LIBERATION THROUGH SHARING SPACE AND STORIES; RESEARCH AND ART-MAKING; DISCUSSING THE HISTORY OF IMPERIALISM AND ITS EFFECT ON US, ON THE WHOLE NON-WHITE WORLD. WE ACTIVELY REJECT COLONIALISM THROUGH OUR NON-HIERARCHICAL PROCESS.

THE #NOTWHITE COLLECTIVE EXPRESSES THE HYBRIDIZED AND MULTIFACETED ASPECTS OF SELF-DEFINED LIBERATION; WE ACCEPT CULTURAL FLUIDITY AS A MEANS OF SEEING AND BEING SEEN, EACH MEMBER DECLARING THEIR EXISTENCE, INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY, THROUGH OUR VOICES, BODIES, AND ART.

EXCAVATING HISTORIES. EXPOSING REALITIES.
