Shaniqwa Jarvis "Untitled" Viewing

NO BAR
On View: October 23 - November 23

Stop into NO BAR this month to view artist Shaniqwa Jarvis' latest film. Completed during her time as The Standard, East Village's first-ever artist-in-residence and born from a process started 24 years ago, the film explores internal conversations and streams of consciousness.

Initially using a tape recorder to capture both her own thoughts and those of her friends—sometimes without them knowing—Jarvis brings the concept to life during her residency. The film weaves together intimate dialogues on topics like health, NYC, worth, art, motherhood, and hustling. Though many voices are involved, the audio is crafted to feel like a single continuous thought from one person. Some conversations were held in Jarvis' room at The Standard, while others took place in NY and LA, or through remotely answered questions. The version being screened at The Standard is a snippet of a larger, evolving project that overlays these collective thoughts with her art—a mix of video, collage, and photography—offering a glimpse into the finished piece still in progress.

The piece will be streaming on a loop in NO BAR. While you're there, order up "x" featuring x, y, and z. A portion of proceeds will be donated to "x".
