ASE: AFRO FREQUENCIES
April 1, 2024 – June 30, 2024
Bold, beautiful, powerful; step into this vibrant Afrosurrealist exhibition, featuring the work of London-based Afro-surrealist digital artist Vince Fraser along with poetry by Ursula Rucker.

The spirit of ase — a powerful affirmation and philosophical belief held by the Yoruba people of West Africa, meaning “so will it be” — reverberates throughout this vibrant and meditative exhibition. Everyone should experience this immersive story of resilience, cultural celebration, and the possibility of the future.

“This exhibit serves not only as art but as a call to action in many ways — to collaborate, to uplift one another, to learn and to progress.” — Essence

Alongside the Immersion Gallery, you can explore other multi-sensory and interactive experiences — like virtually “trying on” African masks — combining film, technology, Afrosurrealism and poetry.

The exhibition’s visuals are echoed by pulsating rhythmic drums and stirring performance from Philadelphia-based poet and musician Ursula Rucker. A Leeway Foundation’s Transformation Award winner, Rucker’s words of empowerment, ancestry, and social justice powerfully narrate the exhibition.
