Diaspora Vibe Cultural Arts Incubator, Inc. (DVCAI) invites audiences to experience its curatorial initiative, The Container Project, at DVCAI at Barry University. The exhibition includes a six-month run of activations and interactive works from November 20, 2025, to April 17, 2026.
Curated by DVCAI Founder, Curator Rosie Gordon-Wallace, based in Miami, and independent curator and creative wellness strategist Breeana Thorne, based in Los Angeles, the trans-coastal, transcontinental, and Caribbean diasporic project poses the question, “What’s in Your Container?”
TUAPUTI is an interactive art installation and performance by multidisciplinary and visual artist Asser Saint-Val, created in collaboration with conduit and intuitive movement practitioner Jessica Freites. The work explores the metaphysical theme of containment through the boundless force of inner magic, drawing on diasporic spiritual traditions and esoteric systems.
The Container Project’s activities take place at DVCAI at Barry University, located at the Monsignor William Barry Library, 11300 NE 2nd Avenue, Miami, FL 33161.
