Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
Coming to us from Taipei, Yo-Yo sends us elsewhere while bringing us back with her to the timezone of tomorrow. A dancer, media artist, and choreographer who makes multi-dimensions and realms, Lin’s amplification of energies and connections across bodies devolves the separations we are taught to abide.
A 3-day exploration – through performance, screenings and discussion – of the art and politics of wayward communities who refuse to be bound by the fictions of race and sex.
A series of three short performed situations and statements to be examined or judged from the most interesting young musician in Glasgow (we think).
