About

Brews 12 v Uno is a communal gathering installation exploring Black joy, sacred play, and conversation as ritual. The sculpture rises as an illuminated vessel beneath a cloud of symbolic cards referencing card games, flavored drinks, chance, and improvisation in culture. A circular seating space invites participants to sit, rest, and share spontaneous dialogue with strangers. Inspired by Black theological traditions of embodiment and becoming, the work proposes Joy as sacred practice. By day the installation offers a place of pause and connection. By night it glows as a landmark on the playa. Brews 12 v Uno invites participants to experience play, rhythm, and conversation as forms of collective healing and celebration.
