		<title>· UV Nile</title>
		<description><![CDATA[UV Nile is an immersive, start-stop performance that draws connections between spiritualism, exoticism, false-idolatry and themes of tribal unity in 90&#8242;s rave culture. The piece casts the gallery space as a house of worship; the performer as a high priest; and each spectator as a congregant. Throughout the night, collective BLVCK AMERICA projects multiple layers [...]]]></description>

		<title>· Esquire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Using the red-light tropes of a traditional brothel, Esquire, set in a private penthouse suite, incorporates intimate contact with each spectator. Informed by the cartoon-masculine showmanship of Russia&#8217;s popular male striptis, the performance piece demands that each performer present himself as Jinetero, the Cuban slang for hustlers as &#8220;horse jockeys&#8221; that &#8220;ride the tourists.&#8221; Amidst [...]]]></description>
