Cadences créoles, dix mille fois dédoublées is a performance created by Inés Sybille and Malvin Montero. Drawing from Angola's Kuduro, Dominican Gagá and Dembow, and the voodoo rhythm Yanvalou, the performers transport their corporealities to a fantastical and syncretic place. Through technologies and memories rooted in the Afro-diasporic space, these two dancers request their bodies to multiply and modify states of consciousness. The codes and technologies of this flow of Blackness underpin this speculation, which tempts to journey towards the Saut d'Eau waterfall, a sacred syncretic site in Haiti.
