Artist in Residency: Black Rock Senegal
Named for the volcanic rocks that blanket its shoreline, Black Rock is a multidisciplinary artist-in-residence program founded by renowned artist Kehinde Wiley in 2019. The residency brings together international artists to live and work in Dakar, Senegal for 1-3 month stays. The Black Rock compound design was conceived by Senegalese architect Abib Djenne with interior collaboration between Wiley, Fatiya Djenne, and Aissa Dione. The complex includes a residence and studio space for Wiley along with three single-occupancy residency apartments with adjacent studio spaces. Our mission is to support new artistic creation through collaborative exchange and to incite change in the global discourse about what Africa means today.

Sonikwell™
A unique, wellness experience providing deep relaxation, emotional release, and rejuvenation through mindfully crafted compositions.
According to studies, both physical and mental hardships can be managed with the help of sound therapy (also known to sonikwell™ as sound-aided release). The cello's distinctive tonal resonance permeates the body and induces profound calm. The sound vibrations of the cello, according to research, are similar to those in the human body. As a result, stress and worry can be released, and the body can start to recover both emotionally and physically.
To affect a person on a core level, the sonikwell™ experience makes use of the science of vibrations and energy produced by the cello along with technical equipment to envelope audience members in a renewing wave of music.
