to be open, to forge an opening, to allow possibility to inform probability.

48hours : is a meeting between two bodies. It is both public and private. It is a place where the live moment – in all its heat and complexity – is centred.

Entangled, together, alone, apart; what is it to be with, to sit with, to move through, and to move for?

Time is a drag, fleeting, a construction, a cage and a gift.

48hours : is an evolving collaboration between internationally acclaimed artists Rowdy SS and Last Yearz Interesting Negro.

Last Yearz Interesting Negro

Last Yearz Interesting Negro makes performances involving dance, video, electronic music and sculpture. They also curate events and host conversations. Working with in-between spaces, syncopation, trance states, internal narratives, intensities, overwhelm, electronic music, and small dances to affect/disrupt/deflect/distort/reflect gaze(s) directed towards their body, and to cope with Being. Resultant choreographies are stage/dreamspace/battleground, working through questions of presence, visibility, responsibility and pleasure, building atmospheric landscapes through the live unfolding of the tensions between things that produce meaning, for situating and expanding (or dismantling) their ‘identity’ and turning it into theatre.

Their current research is around boundaries, betrayal, nonbelonging, scale and trans/formation, on personal/structural/symptomatic/somatic levels. Thinking about impact and exchange through/in/as movement, considering the intimacy and treachery of performance.

In the work, Liveness is considered as a situation of exchange, a quality, a proposition, a system of relations and in addressing the agency of the spectator, considering choreographic space as social space in order to facilitate immersive, emergent spaces for performer/s and spectator/s.

They collaborate under various names. Collaborators include Phoebe Collings-James, Alexandrina Hemsley, Fernanda Muñoz-Newsome and Shelley Parker.
