Arbons Arts Center

Through an installation of shanzhai (counterfeit) garments, along with accompanying programming, this exhibition considers the experience of poetic estrangement through encounters with the unknown or unintelligible, and activates nonsense as a way to make space for hybrid, liminal and illegible futures.

Through sound, light, and movement, Sènsa brings to the fore diasporic geographies, ancestral knowledge, and questions of visibility and invisibility of marginalized voices in Western-dominated history. Presented with the Performa 19 Biennial and Red Bull Arts New York. 

It’s Showtime NYC! dancers collaborate with videographer Kash Gaines and MC Osyris Antham to inject NYC underground dancers’ voices into the larger dance and cultural landscape.
