Jameelah Platt & 
Lost Culture Dance Crew, Freshworks Residency Presentation

KST Presents

KST’s Alloy Studios
5530 Penn Ave

Visual artist Jameelah Platt teams with the Lost Culture Dance Crew to combine dance, film, photography, and painting into a visual language that illustrates underrepresented, misrepresented and concealed narratives. Jameelah Platt is a painter, collage artist, and admirer of vast spaces of flora, working with themes of nostalgia and comfort to provide viewers with a nurturing and reflective experience that provokes introspection. Lost Culture is an all-styles dance crew that brings back the lost culture of Pittsburgh.

This in-progress performance is part of KST’s Freshworks Residency, program which provides artists with space, resources, and support to explore new ideas and launch new projects. Presented in conjunction with Unblurred: First Fridays on Penn, sponsored by the Penn Avenue Arts Initiative, a joint program of the Bloomfield Garfield Corporation.
