Reach deep into the emotional, theoretical, spiritual, cultural intellectual or physical aspects of blackness. The objective is not the absence of colors; it’s the predominance and use of the color black in your creations.
Relish in the concept and color of black …its elegance, depth, dizzying sensation of infinity. Enfold us in your black experiences. Stretch the definition, claim it, and adorn it. Let us reveal Black, as it has never been seen before.
