Our Meet the Next-series features new makers who deserve a spot on our stage. This night features two pieces: Clara Fottignon with On top of the cherry along with NOT YET HERE by Sjaid Foncé.
Imagine. You are having a milkshake, made of three scoops of vanilla ice cream, colorful sprinkles and a cherry on the top. As you get ready to take a sip, you look down and on top of your cherry you see three people. Enjoy.
In NOT YET HERE, the space is reflected through magical elements and body language from the Black vision to be fully present. A look at the present, the past and a new future, 'A blueprint of doing and other ways of being.' For this work, Sjaid Foncé was inspired by elements from Afro-futurism, traditions, myths and fables from the Afro-Caribbean diaspora.
