Okwui Okpokwasili is an Igbo-Nigerian American artist, performer, choreographer, and writer. Her multidisciplinary performances draw on practices of body duration, a reflection of how black and brown bodies must hold multiple possibilities and conditions that are both confining and liberating. She describes her work as being at "the intersection of theatre, dance, and the installation." Several of her works relate to historical events in Nigeria. Artists-In-Presidents: Fireside Chats for 2020 will be released weekly via podcast, virtual gallery, and social media.
