One-to-one durational performance lasting 3 hours with a total of 9 audiences performed at The Salutation, Cavendish Street, Manchester. January 2024. 

 

This performance is an exploration of memory, gratitude, and ancestrality, inviting participants to engage in a ritual of remembrance and reverence for the past. It's a piece that intricately weaves personal narratives, socio-political commentary, and ritualistic elements to explore the underrepresented influences that shape individuals' lives. Originating from a personal experience of loss and reflection, the performance aims to pay homage to educators and other significant figures or moments whose contributions often go unrecognized. Drawing inspiration from Yoruba cultural rituals of paying homage and British mourning customs, the performer utilizes sound, movement, material, and text as incantations to evoke memories and trigger contemplation.
