Project Feature: Bird in Paradise
#DLECTRICITY presents “Bird in Paradise” by New D Media, an installation that transforms the Wright Museum into a living vision of the revolutionary jazz scene in Black Bottom and Paradise Valley, Detroit’s booming black neighborhoods of the 1940’s.
What begins as a stylized resurrection of long lost nightlife in Paradise Valley soon becomes a soaring, hypnotic journey through time and space, shape and color, when the legendary Charlie “Bird” Parker comes to play. Through his music, the architectural facade itself becomes an instrument of memory, resilience, and liberation. See this installation TONIGHT and tomorrow projected onto the Wright Museum of African American History!
