Mama Say Make I Dey Go, She Dey My Back
12 May 2017
Jelili Atiku created this performance and movement for La Biennale di Venezia 2017, which integrated the intersection of processional rituals, fashion, mystical and abstract sound, and rituals with natural resources and objects. It was created to direct attention to the potency of feminine energy, body ritual and ontology so as to serve as a point of reasoning and catalysts to our utopia. The focus is to create discourses on re-thinking on the essence of women to the wellbeing of humanity and activate a shift in consciousness towards the direction and adoption of the values of feminine energy. It believes that enhancement of feminine energy and freedom of women would release the power of human development, peace, harmony and creative energies in the world. Róisín was one of the 72 women who participated.
