Raoni/Muzho Saleh

Description

Raoni/Muzho Saleh (1991 AFG/NL) is an artist with a bachelor degree in Literary and Cultural Analysis (UvA) and a bachelor degree in Choreography (SNDO). His work is influenced by fugitivity, a revolutionary movement that shapes his artistic vision. By dancing through the gender spectrum, Raoni has developed a unique movement practice that emphasises becoming “other” and choreographing a continuous state of incompleteness. Through the use of materials such as fabrics, textile, dough, voice and text, Raoni invites a serious kind of play into the space where both spectators and performers can become immersed in otherworldly narratives. His intimate relationship with the materiality of artistic practice allows for an ongoing negotiation of a wayward becoming.
