What Makes Us Human: Artwork of TC Moore (Antone's Upstairs)

Step into the world of TC Moore, a visual artist whose work dives deep into what it means to be human. Through themes of the Middle Passage, Western expansion, and the evolving Black body, Moore’s art examines history, identity, and the tension between belonging and displacement. His pieces, influenced by African imagery, Central and West African traditions, and African masks, challenge us to reflect on how “otherness” has shaped both the past and our present world.

Curated by Sariya Harris, this event is designed to break away from the traditional gallery setting. Expect an evening of immersive storytelling, live performances by artists and poets and a powerful conversation with TC Moore himself.

All of this unfolds at Antone’s Nightclub, a venue that has long been a home for musical excellence, carrying the legacy of the blues into the present day.

Come ready to collect art, experience music, engage in meaningful dialogue, and immerse yourself in a space where history, culture, and creativity collide.
