“My slam and music worlds are already very much inspired by the Universe of Edouard Glissant. So when Street Art for Mankind, a great non-profit who promotes art for social change, offered me to join the Tout-Monde Festival created by the French Embassy and France Florida Foundation, I was thrilled. The trio Urban Performance should be a true experience. To perform along such talented artists like Ronald and Stephon and to inspire the public to make our world a better one is something I cannot wait for. I truly believe that art can make a difference.” – Black Kalagan

Show curated by Street Art for Mankind and part of the Tout-Monde Teens program of the Tout-Monde festival, first Caribbean Contemporary Arts festival, launched by Cultural Services of the French Embassy in close partnership with the France Florida Foundation for the Arts on March 1- 4, 2018
