In my second Houston + NYC collaboration, I’m happy to announce that Documenting The Nameplate will be in Houston for two nights. I met the creators, Marcel and Isabel, at their archive party in Brooklyn. Ever since, I’ve been a huge fan of their work. Check out their Top Rank podcast on the topic as well.

After learning about their plans to visit Houston, I was excited to collaborate to make their visit to H-town memorable.

Come and learn about their project at their talk at University of Houston on 9/18.

Also, get your nameplate scanned at Sawyer Yards on 9/19. All free and open to the public!

UPDATE: Event was cancelled due to flooding from Tropical Storm Imelda.

Lecture on 9/18/19

Scanning Party on 9/19/19

The Unapologetic Street Series Pop-Up - 4/20/19

Salvi Dream Team Collaborators: Moe Penders, Johanna Toruño and Yeiry Guevara

As an artist, I’m always open to collaborating. Upon my move to Texas, one of my main goals was to host and create events in the trillest city on earth, Houston. When I learned my NYC Homie Johanna was on tour, we were able to connect to bring her art project, The Unapologetic Street Series (formerly known as The Unapologetically Brown Series) to Houston. The pop-up found a perfect home with Moe Pender’s show, El Chow: Mango Verde at Sabine Street Studios.

Major thanks to: Moe for all their incredible work to make this event possible; Somos Semillas & Sphynx Houston for the delicious vegan food. Excellent tunes provided by DJ Emily Eareta.

Event Details:
April 20, 2019
2 - 7 pm
Free at Sabine Street Studios, HTX
