BRIDGING PUBLIC SERVICE, CREATIVE PRODUCTION & SPATIAL INNOVATION
AN ACTIVATION CELEBRATING CARRIBEAN DIASPORA IN LONDON
SOUND ADVICE were invited by senior V&A curator Meneesha Kellay to curate an experience for the first V&A Late after the Covid-19 lockdowns.
SOUND ADVICE used the V&A Late to remember the shubz, a predominately London phenomenon usually hosted in domestic spaces or small local social infrastructures to create a more informal night culture. Predominantly for communities, the Shubz, was a space for communities who struggled to be culturally represented or even allowed into formal nightclubs. The Video installation by sound advice showing some of the most groundbreaking music videos that capture the domestic landscape of the global majority.
Collaborators: Meneesha Kellay (Curator), Joel Antoine Wilkinson (Graphic Design), OPP Black Radio (Sound System) and Borough Workwear (Merchandise).
