Nubian Néné
BIO
Nubian Néné is a New York-based dancer/choreographer who finds inspiration in weaving street/club dances she’s practiced for 20 years to create her unique style. Her Haitian roots have helped paved her way with resilience and hard work, giving her the ability to expand into a producer, a creative director, a curator, a teacher, and much more, making her an asset to any project. Her mentors are some of the pioneers of Hip Hop culture, encouraging her lifetime involvement with cultural awareness, community engagement, and event production. In 2017, Waack Bazaar, a festival dedicated to the Waacking culture and its heritage, is created and inspired by The Essence Experience (2014), her waacking teaching program. She’s taught at Illadelph, Funky Fundamentals, Block Party, Summer Dance Forever, and Juste Debout, just to name a few. Glasses and Laces (2015), a space for words to be read, is created to explore how words can be a release of the soul. A blog about self-expression, presented in the forms of poetry, short stories, lyrics, and more.
Created in 2012, A Lady in the House Co. (ALITH)’s mission is to express truly, while maintaining the integrity of Black forms of dance and to innovate performance experiences through multidisciplinary mediums. Its vernacular is street/club dances, with a desire to break and try forms. ALITH’s latest work dualis (2022), performed by Tatiana Desardouin, is a step toward a new choreographic approach for Nubian Néné. With Signature Verses Liberation (2022), she hits a milestone revealing herself as a visual artist, exhibiting at JOAT Art (2022), blending her architecture training and life experiences together.

QUESTION DE RECHERCHE
Comment puis-je incorporer l’art visuel à ma danse? Comment enfiler ces mots, que j’aime écrire, sur scène? Est-ce une volonté, une possibilité ou une nécessité? Comment mon esprit chorégraphique se permet-il de s’exécuter sous différentes pratiques artistiques? Comment créer sous formes créatives différentes de la danse. Comment faire le ménage du désordre, ou utiliser le désordre pour créeer? Est-ce que la clarté est nécessaire pour la création?
