@deisha_o and @luci_lu_lu_ performed as duo la/do @bmcmuseum for this year’s {Re}HAPPENING, which took place the last weekend of April. It was like a whacky and wonderful dream come true. The event recently received glowing coverage from the Cultural Voice of North Carolina, which labeled the event “nothing short of miraculous.” Here’s a short excerpt:⁠ ⁠ “On their own, the exhibitions, activities, and installations would be fascinating curios, if occasionally shrouded in abstraction. However, together, their eccentricities, vagaries, and trivialities became a powerful representation of what Black Mountain College had been – or, on the shores of Lake Eden every April, still is.”⁠ ⁠ You can read the full article on the Cultural Voice of North Carolina’s website @culturalvoice_nc⁠ ⁠ In the meantime, please enjoy these photos from the event!⁠ ⁠ ___⁠ Article: “Nothing Short of Miraculous: Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center’s {Re}HAPPENING 14” by Pruett Noris for the Cultural Voice of North Carolina⁠ Image 1: la/do by Deisha Oliver + Luciana Arias.

Sadie and @deisha_o launched Flight of Swallows as an experimental improvisational project blending aerial, burlesque, and contemporary dance with live music. After debuting on February 19th, 2010, it's hard to believe it's been 16 years! 💕💕💕 taken in Atlanta, Georgia by @flightofswallows

This moment. Deep in the throes of an Atlanta summer. Bridge dancing. Cello and synth looping. Feeling heavy from the heat but light enough to create for this Art on the Atlanta Beltline event. This past year has been filled with transitions and changes. We have rested. We have worked our day jobs. We try to rest a little more. Working on our processes - which now require us to rest. We look forward to future unknown offerings and for now are content exploring what it means to not grind out creativity’s ability to heal, to enrich, to uplift … which means we rest. 💚 taken in Ansley Golf Club by @flightofswallows

From our cellist @deisha_o After months of not being able to play cello and through the help of my cohorts, I have the supreme honor of playing tonight at the existentialist church in candler park. These humans are magic. I am so grateful I get to make art alongside @shinburley @ofirklemperer @lu_lu_lu_cifer 💗 taken in First Existentialist Congregation by @flightofswallows
