Moor Mother, MC, poetry
Philadelphia-based artist, poet and musician, Camae Ayewa, who performs under the name Moor Mother, is one of the most intriguing artists today. Moor Mother has toured throughout the world (also stopping in Ljubljana) and performed live, inter alia, with Roscoe Mitchell and the Art Ensemble of Chicago. As a being of light and ritual in a forever darkening world, Moor Mother brings us Analog Fluids of Sonic Black Holes, the culmination of all of her earthly experiences merged with all of her cosmic ones. Shimmering in sinister sentience, Analog Fluids of Sonic Black Holes is the perfect synthesis of Moor Mother’s unique artistic approach and the Black revolution at large. Myth, Black mothers, vodun, quantum futurism, and post-colonial street narratives all get their moments to shine. Only a conjurer like Moor Mother can bring all those pieces together as a cohesive, powerful whole.
