MAXI HAWKEYE CANION:
TOMORROW AS IT WILL BE
In this multidimensional solo experience, movement artist Maxi Hawkeye Canion utilizes Black technologies to manifest a visually rich environment representing an engagement with the subconscious by way of immersive feedback loops. They conjure intimate terrains, communicating with ancestors while simultaneously embodying a futuristic entity of their wildest imaginings.
