ADRIAN HOWELLS AWARD FOR INTIMATE PERFORMANCE 2021

We are delighted to announce the recipient of the 2021 Adrian Howells Award is Nwando Ebizie. This year the award is co-presented by Take Me Somewhere, Something To Aim For, Battersea Arts Centre & BUZZCUT.

Nwando Ebizie fabulates live and digital numinous alternate realities, drawing on ritual cultures of the Black Atlantic, the neuroscience of sensory perception, music, immersive technologies, mythopoesis, biophilia, dance and performance art. As an Afrofuturist neurodivergent person, she is focused on proposing neurodiversity as an egalitarian centre for change, whilst resting on the much maligned wisdoms of the Black Atlantic, where the body is a vessel for the spirit to transform the self and the community.

ABOUT THE AWARD

Adrian Howells (1962 – 2014) was one of the world’s leading figures in the field of one to one and intimate performance. Over two decades he developed an artistic practice that focused on the transformative possibilities of intimate work, achieved through a profound, immediate and personal connection to his audiences. Through these works and the care he took in every aspect of the experience, he was often able to deeply affect those who participated in these encounters. More about award
