About the event
This Saturday 14th May, NCAI invites you to {thirdspace(d)out} ;a multi-disciplinary performance curated by TURN2 resident Jumoke Adeyanju. Thirdspacedout has had previous iterations in Berlin and Lagos with the Nairobi edition presenting Jumoke’s current work in progress OTA: to dream OTA [swahili: dream/outreaching transfigurative alterations]. Performers include: Ndinda Kioko (live writer), Jonathan Fraser(voice over artist), Shishi + Jumoke (dancers) and Adae (live act). OTA is an exploration of lucid dreamscapes that lead one into (im)possibilities of being, alternate paradises and past time frames. Presented as an audio-visual experience incorporating sound art, writing, and dance, OTA sonically engages these different artforms to create a series of visualized adventures, memory storehouses and ancestral histories in collaboration with artists living and working in Nairobi. TURN2 RESIDENCY is a partnership between the German Federal Cultural Foundation @kulturstiftungdesbundes, the Center for Arts and Urbanistics (ZK/U) and the @trianglenetwork, TURN2 - Curatorial Research Residencies are held in partnership with @ncai254 in Nairobi, @bagfactoryart in Johannesburg , @gasfoundation in Lagos and @zku.berlin in Berlin. TURN 2 aims to facilitate research for emerging curators and cultural practitioners by supporting international collaborations and knowledge sharing opportunities.
