ALTOSTRATUS: AN ALLEGORY is a video work by performance maker Okwui Okpokwasili with collaborating artist, Peter Born.

ALTOSTRATUS CLOUDS ARE GREY OR BLUE GREY.

THE SUN OR MOON MAY SHINE THROUGH THESE CLOUDS

BUT IT’S SIGNALING THAT A STORM IS ON THE WAY.

THIS IS A PIECE INVOLVING MOVEMENT, SOUND, AND TEXT.

IT IS MEANT TO HOLD A SPACE FOR REFLECTION,

TO CONSIDER WHAT HANGS ABOVE US AND HOW IT ALL MAY FALL.
