With AltBlax

WE"VE GOT A SPECIAL GUEST TAKING OVER ALTBLAX FM AIRWAVES THIS SPOOKY SEASON: Shane Sutherland, a London-based visual artist of Jamaican descent, transcends boundaries to celebrate the Black subject, particularly at the intersection of queerness. Rooted in explorations of stories, heritage and histories, their practice explores nuanced themes of global Black identity through photography, film and 3D.

Under the moniker ‘MASKITÁ’, they DJ with a focus on music from the global Black diaspora, blending genres from Afro house, Dancehall, soca, Bouyon with queer/Kunt tracks and sounds from the ballroom/vogue scene. Through mixing these genres, they aim to create a space for Black bodies to move beyond dichotomies, challenging societal norms through music and art.

Prepare for an experience that resonates far beyond the airwaves xoxo
