LABIAL MAJORITY No.8 is upon us! All female/trans/womyn identified/genderqueer outsider music show featuring:
MUYASSAR KURDI (Chicago / Europe) Musician, performance artist, dancer, filmmaker and educator, she explores the relationship between abstract sound and metaprimordial movement, obliquely confronting ideas of masculine subjugation by reappropriating and then distorting hegemonically sexualised figurative motion and juxtaposing it with random, abrasive and jarring acoustic and electronic sound components along with wordless vocalisations. Kurdi studied voice and dance with Meredith Monk as well as learning Japanese dance tradition Butoh with Tadashi Endo and Mexican master of the form Diego Piñon. muyassarkurdi.com muyassarkurdi.bandcamp.com
