An unclassifiable polymath, British-Nigerian multidisciplinary artist Nwando creates Afrofuturist speculative fictions and alternate realities at the intersection of live art, experimental music and multi-sensory installations. She proposes new myths, rituals and provocations for radical change and radical transformation of the self and community, drawing from science fiction, Black Atlantic ritual cultures, biophilia, neuroscience, electronic music, and her own neurodiversity and Nigerian heritage. Her critically acclaimed first EP The Passion of Lady Vendredi on her own imprint Tears In The Rain records caught the ears of taste makers such as Gilles Peterson, The Wire and BBC 3’s Late Junction. As a composer and musician, she was awarded the Oram Award with special commendation (2019) and the British Council in Brazil grant (2018) amongst others. Her debut album 'The Swan' comes out on Matthew Herbert's label Accidental Records early 2022. The album is a work of sonic fiction into the imagined world of a matriarchal community, expressed like a time-bending ethnographic account of found sound and footage that is at once both ancient and futuristic. https://www.nwandoebizie.com/
