COMING for Detroit Month of Design: An immersive experience with Elonte Davis & friends

UNDERCURRENT transforms Irwin House Gallery into an immersive photo, moving image, and sound-cave culled from over 20,000 extraordinary everyday moments crystallized by emerging photographer, Elonte Davis. Designed to celebrate the pulse of Detroit – our people, neighborhoods, and creative communities – the activation highlights some of Davis’ most iconic captures through light, film, sound, spoken word, traditional prints, and indoor/outdoor installations. As part of the exhibit, and in the spirit of community, a crew of collaborators will participate and respond to Elonte’s images using their respective media. The cast includes Oshun Williams, Terrell Anglin, Bryce Detroit, Desmond Love, Joe Cazeno, Jimel Primm, Aya Hassan, Ruby Flwrs, Dominick Lemonious, Matt Rozensky, Trevor Tillman and introducing youth artist, Brooklyn Wilson.

Photographer, Elonte Davis
