Spine Of Desire: Wounds wit­hout tears, out of one skin in dia­monds and shit is a per­for­man­ce that draws from indi­vi­du­al and col­lec­ti­ve nar­ra­ti­ves to cre­a­te an expe­rien­ce through sonic, visu­al, spa­ti­al, and dan­ce elements.

Stanley Ollivier’s new work takes as its star­ting point the com­mu­ni­ty-buil­ding power of POC (People of Colour) belon­ging spa­ces to refor­mu­la­te fami­liar cho­re­o­grap­hic appro­a­ches. Together with per­for­mers Lily Brieu Nguyen and Mamadou Wagué, they explo­re eve­ry­day rea­li­ty and soci­al chan­ge through a dan­ced lan­gu­a­ge that reflects the inter­re­la­ti­ons bet­ween inti­ma­cy, the body, and the cre­a­ti­on of a guar­ded, safe space.
