The video Jammin’ Drama Project is freely inspired by Love Stream, the 1984 film directed by John Cassavetes. This work unities representatives of the various communities living in Harlem, from African-Americans to Hispanics. Invited by the artist through an open call, the members of these sometimes separated groups and very proud of their identity, worked to create a scenario that was then played by two professional actors in front of the authors.
This project is a participatory artwork conceived as a work in progress aimed at putting together different communities that live together in the same territory, to show the processes through which they are able to coexist without giving up their own identity.
