FEATURE008: Last Yearz Interesting Negro | VIRTUALLYREALITY

Last Yearz Interesting Negro spoke to MICHAELBRAILEY after their performance with Rowdy SS at VIRTUALLYREALITY presents: Care.

[LYIN]: “Collapsing time’ is also thinking about what those moments when I/you/we/one might feel fully present - after sex, dancing, out in the elements/‘nature’, the feel of the steam from a just boiled kettle hitting your chin, when menstrual blood drips from between your legs and runs down your thigh… I think that about all ‘works’ as part of a cumulative process of my artistic practice. I enter into performances as research spaces, constellations of people-time-place-performance that become crystallised. Some of the performances reach a place of completion where they become themselves, but not all. Most of the work happens outside of a rehearsal room, a continual hum of a thought process - on walks, at night, when I am having a conversation about other things, in dreams... Audience, the people who receive the thing I am making/imagining/imaging, are part of it and its forming, its augmentation, so it’s never finished before this encounter which shifts and transforms whatever I/we might have thought we were doing or planned to do. It’s an interesting kind of surrender, and when you’re lucky, the thing reveals itself.”

Different angles: Jamila Johnson-Small on Last Yearz Interesting Negro, the limits of language & how those limitations might speak

“Oh, okay, maybe there is something I have to bring here,” says Jamila Johnson-Small about a moment of realisation during her time at Lewisham College. “The director of…

“I don’t think I am making work that is any more personal than the next person. I think all of our gestures are expressive and reveal us. I collaborate because I want to expand my thinking and my doing; to become wider and sharper and softer and I guess to temper certain tendencies within myself. It is good for me to work with other people, navigating spaces, ideas, intimacies. You know, to stay grounded enough to fly. Also to share and encounter myself, to get some perspective, to learn about navigating tensions. But also because I love to see other people having space to do what they do and if I can support that, encourage that and get to be around that, then life is good, you know. It’s very nourishing.I have always been interested in the idea of having different desires and agendas articulated within the same space, whether this is possible, like how to be together in general as humans. For me, it’s super important to try to understand how to meet and how to be met.”
