Your flag is a rope that binds me is a new performance by Iceboy Violet, telling a personal story of belonging, and of carving a home in the in-betweens, using vocals, the hostile and celebratory music of dancehall, and a block of ice.
Iceboy Violet is a musician and performer, working between the internal and the internet. They use experimental rap music and live performance as a means of ecdysis – skin shedding – mutual catharsis and connection in an atomised world.
Iceboy Violet has performed at Tate Liverpool, Audra Festival and Traumabarundkino.
Your flag is a rope that binds me is part of a series of performances taking place at Raven Row over the summer, from July to September.
