About the artist
Metropolarity
Artists
METROPOLARITY is a corner store sci-fi & thought collective that first took form in the linear imperial year 2012.
We began a collision and exist now as a process, a documenting of becoming, a node in a network, a place of witnessing and comfort, plotting, an example hard work, an example of the counter, alternative, proof. It was and is an experiment, but now consists of tools, gatherings, and practices that interweave with the landscape of Philly grown resistance culture.
