Black Salt Collective is launching therir first large-scale collaborative project: a part-narrative, part documentary, art film with original musical soundtrack. Black Salt Collective is the work of artists Grace Rosario Perkins, Adee Roberson, Sarah Sass Biscarra-Dilley, Anna Luisa Petrisko (Jeepneys), and Fanciulla Gentile.
In their own words:
“We are five women of color artists, musicians, healers, educators, and visionaries. We are Bolivian, Filipino, Chumash, Navajo, Yaqui, Jamaican, Slovak, Swedish, Mexican, African, Basque and Pima. We each make work that is unique, yet share profound commonalities. While rooted in our past, we create the future. We formed this collective to create a circle of support for each other, because we find support for artists like ourselves so lacking. Between us, we have more than 40 years of experience of making art within our communities.”
