Nkisi is a creative musician and artist based in London with Kongo roots. She uses sound as a way to explore the spiritual technologies embedded in music and dance and how to keep these alive. Rhythm, sound and noise are used as ways to activate traces of memory inscribed in and by the body in motion. Through the use of sensory codes, Nkisi merges music, performance and research in ancient musical technologies to invite audiences to dance with the invisible and activate embodied forms of revolution and resistance for the unmaking and making of worlds.

Co-curated with Berlin Atonal at Terraformaᵉˣᵒ Roma 2025.
