Mbu, 2017
performance, 30 min

Performed in collaboration with Cédric Fauq, Mbu combines multi-layered video projection with dance, sound and live percussion to speculate about embodied histories. This performance deepens an autobiographical exploration of physical memory by considering the Black body as an archive, using its waters as pathways to knowledge and information.
