Do ideas emerging from particle physics help to re-think of blackness as a mode of life in which it’s possible to practice difference without separation?
Introducing and setting intentions for a crip grief transformation and witness altar. A place to sit and breathe, remember our dead, wash our hands and leave offerings to and for loved ones we’ve lost – and for ourselves.
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
A movement-based workshop on Krump and the politics of how we teach, learn and listen with our bodies. Move with us!
A performance of Ueinzz’s new play. Each Ueinzz performance is a process of reinvention, between exhaustion and a fleeting vision: singular, collective, anonymous, plural, suspensive, intensive, unworking life.
Improvising violinist Angharad Davies performing with pianists Tisha Mukarji and Andrea Neumann.

A voice that can vault from an elegantly whispered insinuation to asphyxiated and murderous barks or squalls in a heartbeat.
