“Welcome to My Jungle” is a contemporary ritual in which body, sound and space combine to create an immersive experience. At the centre of a circular stage, surrounded by a sound system enveloping both audience and performers, repetition becomes a transformative practice: a repetitive movement set to jungle music becomes the gateway to a trance state, awakening a deep-seated bodily memory. The performance takes on the shape of an inner struggle, like a boxing ring where the conflict is invisible but constant. The body grapples with opposing forces – control and surrender, resistance and yielding – in a tension that permeates gestures, rhythm and voice. Through remixes, loops and variations of Dawn Penn’s track “No, No, No”, sound becomes living matter that acts on the body and guides its transformations. Combining rituality and club culture, Ndoho Ange’s work builds a space where identity, memory and present are constantly being redefined.

Bio

Born in 1983, Ndoho Ange is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is rooted in movement as a primary language. In the 2000s, she trained in hip-hop dance and soon developed an interest in trance. Her practice spans dance, visual arts, photography and music, creating a hybrid field of research in which each medium contributes to a shared poetic and introspective tension. Inspired by traditional Caribbean dances, Ndoho Ange revisits rituals through a contemporary lens. Her stage works, including “Random Believer” and “Who’s Fear Death”, intertwine dance, digital music and visual arts to explore themes of death, rebirth and identity.
