Event information
longerr inheritances (curated by Otis Mensah) explores notions of jazz experimentation and what it means to bend genre and artistic expression as Black and artists of Colour. longerr inheritances will propose an expressionistic unveiling and exhibition of untold, mystified artistic practices of Black artists and artists of colour, linking regionality to universality through common diasporian connecting points whilst exploring varying perspectives on the body, dreaming and home through live performance. This programme is interwoven by interdisciplinary practices of live music expression at the intersection of poetry and sound.
longerr inheritances will take place across two venues and events
(Act II) hosted by DJ MYNA, will feature a headline performance from Savanna Morgan, multi-disciplinary, neo-traditionalist musician and performer from East Texas, classically trained in both European and American (jazz) vocal styles, featuring accompaniment from African American performer and composer Zaki Hagins. As well as performances from artist, musician, Yumé NET, who melds modern jazz and experimental electronic music to tell stories about the very personal and very human aspects of her life (platonic love, trans joy, identity, bigotry, community) and how technology has transformed them. As well as an opening performance from Hamza Mohamed Beg, Muslim artist whose mediums of expression span from performance and poetry to sound design and video collage. Care, labour, diaspora, and faith are consistent themes that weave within his works.
