Marques Redd, co-founder of the nonprofit Rainbow Serpent, curated the public art installation, The Four World Ages. Displayed on approximately 100 digital kiosks and billboards across Atlanta, GA; Baltimore, MD; and Pittsburgh, PA, this project was organized in partnership with Orange Barrel Media.
The Four World Ages draws on Nigerian-Igbo myth to tell the history of humanity as it unfolds through four eras: the Age of Universal Oneness, the Age of Self-Awareness, the Age of Light, and our current Age of Suffering. This piece features four dancers adorned with body paint as they enact this sweeping saga and also manifests as a Rainbow Serpent multimedia production by the same name.
