Pack Li.gh.te was intentionally made as a sound component of a multisensory installation that honors the Black Interior and its relationship to the land as a source of self actualized healing. Pack Li.gh.te. examines truths of Black femmedom, personifying in physical form the customs and rituals we use to let go and make space for anew.

The full installation of "Pack Li.gh.te" by glyneisha(BlkBosom), cofounder of Strange Fruit Femmes, will be on view at the Nerman Museum for Contemporary Arts in Overland Park, KS through Apr. 24, 2022 , as apart of the 2020 Charlotte Street Foundation Fellows Exhibition.

You can soon find the full transcript for this composition at StrangeFruitFemmes.com

This piece was produced by BlkBosom and Lil Soup Dreams in collaboration with Strange Fruit Femmes.

Strange Fruit Femmes is a collective that centers the works of Black femmes living and thriving in the Midwest --

Here We Are. We Are Here is coming together… An honoring of the words,sounds, and spaces that hold us. Using the legacy of Black, Brown, and Indigenous, music and literature, we will celebrate and be in conversation with one another about the many influences of our peers and ancestors' work on the spectrum of contemporary Black Artistic life and spirit and its place in our society. 

While carrying the gift of storytelling and cultural preservation each recording will be archived as an oral herstory,using Audio Collage Assemblage to communicate memories, illuminate paths forward, and hold care for and support the presence of Black and Indigenous artistic spirituality.
