Join us Monday, January 13, 2025 for a stunning live multimedia experience featuring 14 acclaimed NY-based artists – traditional musicians, remix artists, storytellers, and dancers – honoring and re-imagining their African and Indigenous lineages.

Background
In September of 2024, Remix ⟷ Culture opened its latest artist residency (Tanfis III) with the following existential questions: “Where do we come from? What have we become? Who do we want to be?”

During the 3-week residency, the 7 artists-in-residence from African-American, Colombian, Gambian, Guinean, Peruvian, and Senegalese diasporas creatively explored their individual and collective responses to these questions, while sharing meals and learning to co-exist under the same roof.

The culmination of this communal, collaborative process is an entirely new live experience–designed and performed by the artists-in-residence, alongside 7 featured guest artists–that will take the audience on a “tanfis” journey through the seamless harmony of live acoustic music, remix, dance, storytelling, and video art.

Sacred chants, virtuosic West African drumming, stunning cinematography, honoring of ancestors and teachers, powerful spoken words and life-affirming storytelling, exquisite dance, masterful electronic music, live video remixing - these are just some of the incredible offerings you can expect at this transformative live experience.
