Event Details

Join digital media artist Nailah Golden for a reception as her exhibit Trapfuturism opens in the Idea Box. The exhibit runs through September 24. 

Nailah coined the term “Trapfuturism” in 2019 while working on a class project at the Rhode Island School of Design. A combination of the words “trap” (as in trap music) and “Afrofuturism,” it’s her way of describing how trap and hood culture influence global culture through technology like social media and music.
