About:

Project title: Nonro (kinship, sharing an ancestry) 

Kin, relation sharing an ancestry, the project contemplates and interrogates the state of being in resonance with lineage inheritance, identifying factual and the essence of the path that one is identified with, these thoughts may actuate perceptions of being present in the cultural fabric of a community, the effects that emerges around social relations and community's views in regard to belonging. While in anthropology matrilineality is important and determines who should inherit property on a person’s death the Luo custom of Kenya leans  on patrilineal.

 

Concept:

It is conceived during the process of developing and integrating short stories into images, and audio from different projects, the process is  further experimented using  reversed audio to create feedback layers for the presentation.

Performance is imagined as installation of interactive projected visuals and recorded or live sound/music and body movements

One household, collection of egg shells for a period of 5 months and a recycled chair.

Images taken in a conventional space, emphasise lights to bring details of the images to live, data processed in 4 stages.
