Neg(ate)

If you had to describe yourself as what you “are not”, who are you?

“Warriors get tired too, we no longer want to fight, our survival shouldn’t be to the detriment of our light , we deserve to be held, safely open and be soft. Today, I give myself permission to flow” 

Neg(ate) is an autobiographical solo fusing poetry, music production and choreography. The piece explores intersectionality and the restrictions of language to construct identity. Through negation we write ourselves into existence and find embodiment.
