“The multimedia artist and funkstress has been mapping her visions of Black home space via architectural structures, hieroglyphic etchings, archival objects, and assemblages for over a decade. Halsey uses found objects and handmade works to cultivate a sense of civic urgency. South Central, Los Angeles, Halsey's current and generational home, grounds and charts these ventures in world-building, reminding us of the graphics, decelerations, and funk visions that Black people have declared as vernacular.” —Essence Harden
