Extraterritorial صوت
premieres on Friday December 4th 2020.
The first of our Commissioned Projects!


Extraterritorial صوت is a video work that proposes a feminist take on post-apocalypse ambitions. Collaborators Leyya Mona Tawil, Sholeh Asgary, Dena Al-Adeeb, and Daiane Lopes da Silva construct this work with sounds, images and choreographies that invoke territories inside/outside borders, bodies, and land.

Please join us this Friday, December 4th for a Zoom pre-party from 5:00-6:00pm PST to hang out with the ELIXIR team and toast the process!
