Art’s In The Blood
Selah Marley, daughter of Lauryn Hill and granddaughter of Bob Marley, proudly showed off her first art installation project: “A Primordial Place” inspired by and in celebration of Earth Day at BKLYN Studios located at City Point in Downtown Brooklyn, New York on Thursday, May 2nd.
The press got a preview that evening from the daughter of prominent singer, Lauryn Hill, of a weekend that was full of enriched work that was free to the public last weekend on Friday and Saturday, wrapping up with an afterparty from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Saturday night.
“A Primordial Place” is a sensory art-installation and experience in which guests will be immersed into the collective conscience of 19-year-old artist and model, Selah Marley.
Emphasizing greenery and nature in a space that many consider “The Concrete Jungle”.
The concept will allow guests to escape New York and find their Zen as BKLYN Studios is transformed into an art landscape.
The experience will open the viewers to the delicate, but beautiful nature of wildlife and botany, typically only experienced in a dream or getaway.
This installation is meant to bring the vacation to attendees, letting guests into the mind of the artist and leaving with a piece of her heart.
As an adolescent, Selah Marley called many places home, including New Jersey, Miami, Los Angeles, tour buses and hotels.
Marley was very comfortable with the ability to make a home anywhere.
Marley often considered herself an artist of various disciplines ranging from motion picture to sound and art.
Marley finds it difficult to subscribe to one title,” If I will [give myself a title], it will be one that holds a bandwidth that can encompass the entirety of myself. I’m still in the process of understanding myself and creating a direction for myself, so too many, my process seems chaotic; but I’d at least consider it to be organized chaos.” -Selah Marley
