## Caption

It is with heavy hearts that we acknowledge the passing of Pope.L (williampopel1), the visionary multidisciplinary artist we collaborated with in 2019. “Pope.L: Conquest” was a groundbreaking and ambitious group performance that will remain a testament to Pope.L's profound impact on art, exploring themes of diversity, collectivity, struggle, and achievement. Pope.L's legacy lives on through his boundary-crossing work, challenging societal norms and provoking critical reflection. Our thoughts are with his family and the artistic community and we will continue to honor his memory. #PopeL
