Poet and sound artist MA.MOYO (Belinda Zhawi) and friends, Roxanne Tataei & Marysia Osu, respond to the radical work of artist Noah Davis through poetry, vocal textures, and music.

Poet and sound artist, Belinda Zhawi responds to the work and philosophy of artist Noah Davis, alongside musical collaborators, harpist & beatmaker, Marysia Osu and voice artist and composer, Roxanne Tataei. This interdisciplinary performance celebrates the emotive landscapes of Noah Davis’s artistry through poetry, vocal textures, and harp with real-time effects. It explores the liminal spaces between dream and lucidity, joy and melancholy, individuality and community. Echoing Davis’s vision of creating access and connection, this performance invites you into a shared, evolving space of creativity and reflection.
