Zinzi Minott
Zinzi Minott’s work focuses on the relationship between dance, bodies and politics. As a dancer, she seeks to complicate the boundaries of dance and the place of Black women’s bodies within the form.
Her work explores how dance is perceived through the prisms of race, queer culture, gender and class. Zinzi is interested in the space between dance and other art forms, and though her practice is driven through dance, the outcomes range from performance and live art to sound, film and video, dances and object-based work.
