Hidden Currents

How do you map something invisible?

Hidden Currents draws from golden lionheart collier’s original body of research, The Mother Patch. This work is a reimagining of the routes of forced migration across the African diaspora- known as the Maafa, or great disaster. For centuries, European and Asian empires trafficked African lives, forcing millions across the Atlantic and beyond.

Working with community partners and archival collaborators, collier activates hundreds of field recordings, interviews, and archival audio, weaving together Candomblé devotees, New Orleans Second Line processions, Bomba dancers, ring shouts, field hollers, water drumming, family interviews, and elders speaking of Hoodoo.
