Dancing with the devil / a symphony of organs scattered over the floor is a 3 hour durational performance grappling with our experiences of existing within and witnessing multiple intersecting global crises. Joshua Woolford, Sippin’ T, and Lie Ning, styled by Yodea Marquel, interact with external, natural and technological ‘organs’ which are amplified through repetition, audio loops and electronic processing. In these tangled and fractured moments, Woolford seeks alternative ways of sharing space, criticising power, and expressing oneself in spite of the extractive and dehumanising colonial and capitalist realities we find ourselves within.
