Ntando Cele & Simon Ho

(Durban / Bern & Bruxelles / Bern)

Face OFF

Are you interested in complicated art? Do you think all black people like chicken wings and hate contemporary art? Have you ever wondered why Stevie Wonder smiles so much? If you have answered “yes” to one of these questions then you should not miss Face OFF. Ntando Cele uses humor to deal with her experiences of white Europe: from envy to ridicule, from self pity to shame. Combining music, developed with Simon Ho, who also performs live, text and video images, she makes light of her own struggle with prejudice. Is she just projecting these issues onto people she meets?
