About the project

Angela Sullen has drawn on her own lived experience to create Vital Signs, a debut solo work fusing medical technologies with live performance to create a dynamic interrogation of the topography and medicalisation of the Black larger body alongside the cultural trajectories drawn from the politicisation of such bodies.

Working with director Dino Dimitriadis, the work will anchor itself around the body’s vital signs and incorporates the live use of medical equipment on stage.
