We invite you to spend an evening with multi-talented artist, musician and filmmaker Baloji, as he hosts a night at the ICA exploring the themes of his award-winning first feature film, Omen (Augure) which is being screened internationally.
Omen explores the weight of beliefs on one’s destiny through four characters accused of being witches and sorcerers, all of them intertwined and guiding each other into the phantasmagoria of Africa.
The evening will unfold with an introduction by Baloji, followed by a presentation by Damselfrau to accompany a special display of her mask archive, then a discussion between Baloji and ICA talks and research curator Susanna Davies-Crook, followed by new film Infinite Trolling, a performance by poet JJ Bola and a special guest appearance by Jamila Woods who will perform her own music and collaboration Gorgone (Too old) with Baloji from the fourth disc in Baloji’s album Mama Mujila. Then we go into the night with a special set from Ehua.
This ICA event is supported by NOWNESS and NATAAL and in association with Not Just Any.
Presented by Institute of Contemporary Arts.
This is an 18+ event
