My second EP Dizzillusions is here! (linkinbio) Join me for a very special release performance in Times Square to celebrate among my dazzling #MidnightMoment! (closing at the end of April) Meet at the red steps 11:30 PM 4/25/19 Thursday night 7th Ave &, W 47th St, New York, NY 10036 FREE TO THE PUBLIC Hosted by Times Square Arts đ 'Dizzillusions' is multimedia artist RaFia's whimsically boisterous arrival to the music scene. The 6-track self-produced EP puts several new notches in the Brooklyn artist's tool belt with playful rhythms, surgically sharp lyrics, and sing-song flows. Pairing 'Dizzillusions' with her identically-titled multi-billboard video display in Times Square, RaFia already sees her name in lights. With lyrics like "Now you know that I got bars" in Money Leaves (Don't Stop), "I pray nobody sees when the wounds start bleeding" in Dreamin', and "I just wanna know what it's like when I don't have your treble drowning out my bass" in Get Off 'Dizzillusions' delivers twelve-and-a-half minutes of ego, self-reflection, and a demand for respect. đ Times Square Arts, the public art program of the Times Square Alliance, is the largest public platform for innovative contemporary performance and visual arts. With 312,000 daily visitors to New York Cityâs Times Square, it is one of the highest profile public arts programs and since its inception, Times Square Arts has featured works by a diverse group of nearly two hundred prominent and emerging artists. #SeeRaFia #RaFiaReallyRaps #midnightmoment #liveperformance #publicart #nyc #newyork #midtown #billboard #lightshow #videoart #animation #nevernormal #nevernormalrecords #performanceart (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwjbDP4FThP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=x5xymvwggcu8

The vibrant animation in #Dizzillusions represents sensation, specifically auditory #sensoryoverload that I frequently struggle with. Abrasive sounds (and even strong smells and certain touches) âjam my frequenciesâ and make it difficult for me to concentrate/communicate. You can imagine that Times Square is usually a difficult place for me to be! April is #AutismAwarenessMonth. I am autistic. I use my talents to self-soothe when I am overwhelmed, making hypnotic motion graphics and musical loops, even humming (the groan you hear in this video) and most recently singing. The #TimesSquare #MidnightMoment allowed me to broadcast my self-regulatory practice in one of the worldâs busiest pedestrian areas, asserting my presence in this violently gentrifying city. For just a moment, as the street turns pink and blue, I feel calm. Maybe you will too. Dizzillusions plays every night of April at 11:57 - midnight.

Hey yâall Iâm in a group show a re:trospective curated by @homeschoolpdx in the old Pfizer building in Bushwick! Itâs at 630 Flushing Avenue, Brooklyn and open 11a-6p on weekends through December 2nd, go check it out!!
It got a cute writeup in Vulture!
>> The exhibition brought together nine artistsâ work: Tai Cruz, Pastiche Lumumba, Modus, Precious Okoyomon, Charlie Perez-Tlatenchi, Redeem Pettaway, Rafia Santana, Marcus Scott Williams, as well as abreu, who participated as both curator and artist.
..
âThe idea was for this to be a retrospective of emerging artists,â says curator and artist manuel arturo abreu of re:trospective, a group show that recently opened inside the onetime Pfizer factory in Bushwick.
âRetrospectives are this market tool to present a long view of an established artistâs career, but I was interested in demarketizing it,â abreu continues. âWhat does it mean for an emerging or younger artist to think about their work retrospectively? I think young artists are often thinking about their work this way, asking, How am I establishing a career or a presence for myself?â
