kuDanger! is an experimental performative work that explores iRhanga (township alleyways) as a public space interrogating the possibility of narrative engaging with people’s ordinary aspirations in a geographical location contextualized by violence and violation. iRhanga engages with sensory and cognitive experiences of everyday migration between ikasi and the city, as a “sustained exploration of the ongoing, everyday traumas of dislocation "while unpacking the complexities and nuances of how black bodies from ikasi navigate self-love and freedom”.
