Bloc Billboard - fawns of the city: Otis Mensah

25 May-20 Sep 2023

Bloc Projects

Overview

New interactive billboard commission from Otis Mensah, writer and performing artist with an alternative take on Hip-Hop music and abstract poetry. Focusing on art as a means of documenting journeys of introspection, Otis’ work aims to demonstrate the personal and political power of vulnerable expression, taking influence from the rhythmic and expressive freedom of Jazz and using aesthetic language as an instrument to solo through themes of racial identity, masculinity and coming-of-age. Here he collaborates with photographer Stephanie O'Connor.
