Phlavor.us Presents Leo Coltrane and Friends
Musical artist from Brooklyn. While his work is rooted in Hip-Hop, his approach to making music carries the hallmarks of linguistics, poetry, visual art and jazz.
Highlights
Jordan Webber, American Dreams (Revisited)
May 31 – June 1
American Dreams (Revisited) is an NYPD car filled with a peace garden. The garden is filled with varying plants and peace lilies, which purify air quality in a process called Phytoremediation. The plants occupy the inside of the cop car’s space as a symbol of growth and also a blunt reference to oxygen in direct protest of illegal police tactics such as the chokehold used to subdue civilians which led to Eric Garner’s death.
