Mohamed Toukabri: Every-Body-Knows-What-Tomorrow-Brings-And-We-All-Know-What-Happened-Yesterday

Known for his ability to navigate between different worlds – street and stage, hip-hop and postmodernism, personal and political – Mohamed Toukabri has a new solo work where movement becomes both excavation and rebellion.  Says SAF: “This piece pulses with the urgency of decolonising the imagination, carving out a space where dance traditions do not compete but converse, where forms long dismissed as ‘low’ hold their own against the canonised … The title is both a provocation and a reminder that the weight of history moves with us. What responsibility do we carry in what we pass on, in what we erase or uphold?”

This is part of the fifth edition of Perform Sharjah, Sharjah Art Foundation’s season of curated performances that serve as an engaging space for exploring, remembering and imagining – “treating the body as a site of artistic inquiry, the programme shifts fluidly between intimate reflection and collective experience”.
