With somatic knowledge, Naima Ramos-Chapman sculpts a kinetic monument on the same rooftop in the name of healing and freedom-- where they were arrested at gunpoint as a teen in 2005. Filmed during the pandemic and in the midst of the BLM movement, they intend to liberate their own body through the process of rupturing memory with collective recall and dreaming in response to the state violence and the only virus that has truly plagued their family for generations: white supremacy. May this be a balm.
