The project described in this essai, Blackbird (2018), was created in collaboration with Katye Coe and Charlie Cattrall. The initial research and development (August 2018) was supported with funding by Culture Hub Birmingham. My translating of that research into written form was supported by the Society for Dance Research under the Ivor Guest Research Grant (December 2020).

Stefan Jovanović

Stefan Jovanović is a queer-neurodivergent performance-maker who designs spaces and site-specific performances. His artistic practice embraces a maximalist aesthetic, creating speculative fabulations about future-forms of kinship and social healing. As a trained trauma therapist and architect, he incorporates spatial dramaturgy and philosophies of well-being into spaces of cultural production.
