Color of Reality by Jon Boogz, Lil Buck, Alexa Meade, & Kalie Acheson.

“Think of it as a van Gogh — that is, if one of his paintings were brought to life as a performative protest.” - The New York Times Color of Reality explores themes of police brutality and racial injustice in modern American life through the movement artistry of Jon Boogz and Lil Buck, the illusionistic painting of Alexa Meade, and the film production of Kalie Acheson.

The video art piece opens with two dancers sitting frozen in place, masked with a layer of paint, making them appear to be part of a 2D painting. They are staring into the TV, transfixed and horrified by scenes of police brutality saturating the news. The once static painting snaps to life as the movement artists release their emotions into a stirring dance that is both a lament and a spirited call to action. The result is a powerful, mesmerizing 2D art representation of hearts being broken by racial injustices.
