Julianknxx’s work merges his poetic practice with films and performance; he engages in a form of active listening that at once seeks to find the poetry in the everyday while seeking to express the ineffable realities of human experiences. As one of the artists in residence at 180 Studios, Knxx has regularly collaborated with The Vinyl Factory, releasing the soundtrack to his work In Praise of Still Boys in 2021.
Now showing as part of The Vinyl Factory: Reverb exhibition at 180 Studios, Untitled (ɔl bɔdi na sta) is a creation from one of the artist’s journeys where he met performers, Karel Kouelany and Joël Assebako, who invited him to a performance of their work Systèmes, in Marseille in 2023.
Through his experience with the movement practice of Kouelany and Assebako, the artist decided to bear witness not just to the performance itself, but rather to his own encounter. In this, Julianknxx considers ourselves as worlds encountering other worlds – bodies of cosmic effluvia. The film’s scene occurs in an almost metaphysical space, with two men engaged in a ritual movement, rubbing what looks like salt upon one another.
An original score and composition born from a collaboration between the artist, and musician anaiis, with additional music and vocals from THABO and Aron Kyne, pulses with Krio refrains, as seemingly silhouetted figures encounter the worlds of the two men – leaving the viewer to question their own place within the cosmic.
