Nwando Ebizie
Nwando Ebizie (UK) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work combines performance art personas, experimental theatre, neuroscience, music and African diasporic ritualistic dance. Carving out her own particular strand of Afrofuturism, she combines research into the neuroscience of perception (inspired by her own neurodiversity) and an obsession with science fiction with a ritualistic live art practice.
She has curated happenings for Wellcome Collection and released records supported by Gilles Peterson. She has performed in Tokyo (Bonobo), Rio de Janeiro (Tempo Festival), Berlin (Chalet), Latvia (Baltais Fligelis Concert Hall) and Zurich (Blok), as well as across the UK from Home MCR to Barbican to Southbank Centre. Her most recent project, her first solo exhibition, took the form of a ritual immersive tech landscape and was presented as part of Home MCR’s Push festival at Caustic Coastal.
