🐾 LOTTE’S TAKE

Yoga in the gallery? I came for Robert Leroy Hodge’s Frequency and somehow ended up supervising everyone’s poses.

My technique: sit, stay, absorb the art. Namaste.

JAZZ MEETS FREQUENCY

What happens when an exhibition finds its soundtrack?

On THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, Robert Leroy Hodge’s Frequency comes alive with an evening of art, rhythm, and live jazz, turning the gallery into a space where you can see the frequency, hear it, and feel it.

Three young musicians from Houston’s High School for the Performing and Visual Arts will kick off the evening with live jazz, followed by a performance from Community Music Center of Houston interlaced with DJ sets throughout the night with DJ Ingrid.

Hodge’s exhibition is rooted in rhythm, culture, and frequency; and for one night, those ideas become audible. Experience the artwork surrounded by the energy and improvisation of live music.

Come see the art. Hear the frequency. Feel the connection.
