We worked with Nwando Ebizie on a residency as part of our Season for Change project in 2021.
Nwando Ebizie is an award-winning multi-disciplinary artist and curator. Her work converges around immersive installation, performance art personas, experimental theatre, neuroscience, music and African diasporic ritual. Her own personal strand of Afrofuturism combines explorations of the perception of neuroscience (inspired by her own neurodivergency) and an obsession with science fiction with ritualistic live art.
This has manifested as curated late-night events for Wellcome Collection, music theatre shows such as Lady Vendredi (which ran at Soho Theatre in 2016 and critically acclaimed albums (called “Fresh, Raw and Unique’ by BBC Radio 6Music and Worldwide FM DJ Gilles Peterson).
