This Saturday, October 5, 2019 at 2pm, filmmaker Nadia DeLane will talk on her latest films -- HOME and UTICA on Governors Island with the West Harlem Art Fund and Executive Director Savona Bailey-McClain.

Nadia DeLane is a multimedia designer and visual storyteller working in installation, film, digital and fine art. DeLane has produced creative content for organizations and institutions including the School of Visual Arts, Parsons School of Design, Stone Lantern Films and Turnstone Productions.  She has consulted on several award-winning animated films and documentaries and her work has been featured in online publications such as AI-AP's Design Arts Daily (DART).

DeLane’s documentary film, HOME, tells homegrown stories of first and second-generation Latin@, Caribbean, and West Indian Americans as they reveal truths about assimilation and American culture.

UTICA is an original film about thought. A community is in turmoil as its members sort through telepathic messages. A self-hating telepath must decide whether he will protect the public or safeguard his own mind.

This event is FREE to the public at the exhibition space NP/10 (Nolan Park, Building 10B) in the historic district of Nolan Park. The public can also enjoy the current exhibition, CROSSING THE SANDS, a contemporary art exhibition with artists representing the Caribbean, Africa, and the Americas. Located in the historic district of Nolan Park on Governors Island, visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy both works of art and the venue which is an old military home completed in 1878.

Artists include: Jasmin Charles, Chioma Ebinama, Megan Gabrielle, Iliana Garcia, Scherezade Garcia, Juanita Lanzo and Dianne Smith.
