Inés Sybelle Voodness
Simbi in astronomical waters
'My dance is intertwined with intrinsic philosophies to voodoo, kuduro, or coupe-décalé at least with the way I realize them. The impact of this choreographic field on my movement is crossed by my efforts to resolve existential impossibilities, arising from a diaspora I inherited from my Haitian father - a territory that I associate with the absent, the invisible and dreams. Simbi in astronomical waters I explore a transatlantic black identity, where waters accumulate without canceling themselves. Immersed in Voodoo narratives, I try to revisit what is ambiguous and hybrid in me: I am the seductive and "mulatto" erzulie, or the mestizo child that approaches forbidden waters, or I'm the serpent, which is released from my body to distance me from anthropomoric logic. ' Inés Sybelle Voodness
In a cosmic journey, similar to Afrofuturistic exercises, the dancer and choreographer Inés Sybille Voodness uses the aphrodiaporic space as a place of poetic speculation. On stage, it creates a solo ritual, in an attempt to achieve a state in which it can establish a dialogue with Simbi, the guardian deity of the waters, connecting with a future without time, inscribed in a collective act of non-colonial dreams. Choreographic Field Based on Philosophies Intrinsic to Vodo, Kuduro, and Coupé-Décalé and Shaped by A Diaspora Inherited from Her Heritian Father. On a cosmic Journey, close to Afrofuturist practices, she uses the aphrodiasporic space as place for poetic speculation. On Stage, She Creates Solo Ritual in An Attempt To Reach A State In Which She Can Establish a Dialog With Simbi, The Guardian Deity of the Waters, Connecting to Timeless Future Inscribed in a Collective Act of Non-Colonial Dreams. /> Inés Sybille Voodness
