Have you ever seen a polar bear in the flesh? Here is your chance to get
up close and personal.
“an
extraordinary charged and disturbing meditation on cultural stereotypes and
perceptions and fears” The Guardian
What do a black man and a polar bear have in common? More than you can
imagine. In his first public event, performance artist Jamal Harewood invites the audience to embrace their privilege as
they enter man’s unnatural representation of the polar bear’s habitat.
“simple, beguiling and haunting”
