Michael. has curated this playlist to share some of the sounds that have informed his moving-image installation cleave to the BLACK commissioned for the Jerwood/FVU Awards 2022.

cleave to the BLACK echoes the art historical tradition of the painted triptych in a three-screen installation that offers a panoramic perspective on the legacies of the past that continue to leave an indelible mark on contemporary Black male experience.
