Interdisciplinary Art and Organizing Collective
Detroit, Michigan
Complex Movements is a Detroit-based artist collective supporting the transformation of communities by exploring the connections of complex science and social justice movements through multimedia interactive performance work. Their creative projects are inspired by the writings, philosophy and experience of Detroit-based activist Grace Lee Boggs (1915-2015) and grassroots organizing in Detroit.
Complex Movements is comprised of fine artist, designer, animator, curator, lyricist, professor, Wesley Taylor; artist, designer, and engineer, L05 (Carlos Garcia); lyricist, organizer, and filmmaker, ill Weaver; creative producer, artist, cultural strategist Sage Crump and Waajeed, who is a music producer, sound designer, and filmmaker. Collective members have expertise in fields of animation, creative technologies, performance, installation arts, design, and music production. Each member has spent years honing and evolving their craft, and has been collaborating on various projects for over a decade. Complex Movements' work moves beyond call and response into a regenerative dialogue between artistic methodologies and communities.
