MoAD Mix: Currents — What the Water Remembers
An in-person Immersive Journey
Featuring Natalya Janay Shoaf and Oakland-based DJ Kream
Join us in person on Free First Thursday, April 2nd for an immersive, three-hour activation inspired by Yemaya, the nurturing, protective, Orisha of the ocean.
Currents transforms the museum into a living tide. Dancer and choreographer Natalya Janay Shoaf will activate all three floors with a site-specific performance responding to works in UNBOUND: Art, Blackness, and the Universe, including paintings by Harmonia Rosales and Gustavo Nazareno. Her movement traces water as archive — as lineage, spirit, and force.
Oakland-based DJ Kream shapes the sonic atmosphere of the night, blending rhythms that echo across diaspora and cosmos.
In celebration of UNBOUND’s celestial vision, guests will enjoy wine and two signature cocktails inspired by the exhibition’s cosmic themes, alongside light bites throughout the evening.
This is not a seated program — it is an immersive journey.
