Inside the former Bijlmerbajes prison, the audience moves straight through a nocturnal world of psychedelic music, earnest choreography and poetry. Choreographer, musician, and performer Blackhaine is known for brutal, disorienting, yet tender performances.
Avant garde dance that grabs hold of your senses
— The Guardian * * * *
And Now I Know What Love Is puts both audience and performers face to face with questions about connection and love, hope and despair, life and death. The work breathes the desolate, post-industrial atmosphere of Northwest England, where Blackhaine grew up, and for which this former prison provides the perfect setting.
Blackhaine is an artist based in Salford, UK. His work focuses on belief and restraint, manifesting within choreography, architecture and sound. He reached a wide audience through collaborations with Playboi Carti and Kanye West but as a multidisciplinary artist he also developed a highly distinctive signature of his own. His work fuses drill, post punk, ambient, and experimental hip-hop into intense, layered soundscapes that you not only hear, but feel.
Please note Blackhaine is not performing in And Know I Know What Love Is. The piece is performed live by a cast of musicians and performers.
