Black Fly + Black Venus

CUBITT, 7pm, Saturday 20th May 2023

dUh presents Black Venus and Black Fly for an evening of pleasure and place exploration. We will be marking the true norths of our sensual selves and allowing ourselves to be held by an unseen storyteller.  

This space is imagined to exist as both workshop and a performance art, we want to make reclamation to felt and imagined geographies, we will use existing archive text to situate ourselves in London, we will make and play with our grounded bodies at the centre with accompanying texts and narratives from artists who’ve called this place home at one point or another. 

Please register HERE for this event. This event will be capped at 15 people.

This event is part of the department of Unruly histories exhibition public programme produced by Meera Shakti Osborne.
