Open Studio: Work-in-Progress Presentation of 'Cadences créoles, dix mille fois dédoublées'

28/05/2025

On May 28, 2025, Inés Sybille Vooduness and Malvin Montero will share a work-in-progress presentation of their new duet Cadences créoles, dix mille fois dédoublées at Moussem Studio (Zeemtouwersstraat 6, Rue des Mégissiers, 1070 Brussels) at 19:00, developed during their residency in partnership with Alkantara Festival.

This collaborative project draws on movement languages such as Kuduro, Gagá, Dembow, and Yanvalou to imagine a choreographic field of diasporic resonance. Through repetition, looping, and sampling, the duo engages with Vodou imagery, ancestral memory, and speculative futurisms. Their practice proposes a “glitch-pilgrimage” — a spiritual, sonic, and physical detour through creolized bodies, poetic archives, and digital geographies.

Join us to witness a hybrid, magical field of dance, memory, and invention. Free admission, reserve your spot here.
