Malika Fankha

Residency guest 25/26

Malika Fankha studied theatre in Zurich and contemporary dance at SEAD (Salzburg) and NYU Tisch. They work primarily as a dancer, poet, and DJ. Mal is interested in subverting predictable narratives and carving out spaces for both precarious intimacy and campy melodrama. Their work unfolds the structures and politics of desire by seeking softer interweavings between sensation and sociality, with the aim of building an obstinate yet malleable matrix of connections. Mal loves cat cuddles, armpits, streak challenges on Duolingo, and fully charged batteries.
