FIMBO BUTURES ///

Fimbo Butures was a shared artistic practice (Maya Williams and Lizzy Tan) drawing from experiences in contemporary dance and erotic art. Fimbo Butures created experimental online and live work through two research and performance streams: 'For you: wicked' and Bimbo Futures.

'For you: wicked' merges media, sound design, dance and camming that deconstruct the dynamics of different performance spheres. 'For you: wicked' interrogates the sartorial makings of racialisation and gender and what it means to be ‘NSFW’ when work is unsafe for all under capitalism.

Bimbo Futures is an investigation of ‘the Bimbo’ online and IRL as an avatar of our times. Bimbo Futurism considers existence through labour, and all labour as absurd in end-stage capitalism.

‘…the right balance of absurdity and shock value creates a great formula for humour. Little Bimbo is the perfect example of this.’

Liam Woodvine, Resolution Review

‘…the kind of work that requires effort from the observer: research before, and probably more after - but the pay off is well worth it.’

Matthew Paluch, Resolution Review

‘…so clear in its intention and message that you have no other choice but to sit up and fully experience their stories.’

Francesca Matthys, Dance Art Journal
