‘If suffering purifies the soul / then I’m as pure as one could hope

A beauty bordering on the obscene…’

Join multi-disciplilary artist Nwando Ebizie and enter a liminal space for a sonic exploration of myth, fairytale and archetypes. A playground of dream soundscapes where influences of experimental dance meet Klezmer, new music meets romantic ballad. The poetry of British Sign Language is danced to create visual music and the space vibrates to create an analogous haptic experience.

This is a multi-sensory theatrical music experience, oscillating from romantic songs to nightmarish visions, intimate reverie and lucid horror.

The music/English text/theatrical BSL was created symbiotically in order to give multiple possibilities for access and understanding whilst creating a unique art-music experience. 

Created, directed and composed by Nwando Ebizie, co-produced by Atelier Nwando and London Sinfonietta and supported by Southbank Centre - ‘Fall and then Rise on a Soft Winter’s morning’ is a multi-sensory immersive orchestral/live art experience at Colour Factory (London, UK) happening on 15th Nov 2023 and it is part of Nwando’s approach in creating Accessibility as Innovative Creativity and dismantling and inverting entrenched structural prejudices.

There will be two time slots - people can attend at 7 pm or at 9 pm and the show is one hour long
