Pushit! [exercise 1 in getting well soon]

Can resistance be choreographed? Pushit!, a site-responsive performance by NIC Kay, is a meditation on emotional labour and the impossibility of the stage as a place of freedom for the Black performer. This recording is a discussion with artist NIC Kay and Omar Berrada (Curator) following NIC Kay's performance which took place at 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair New York.
