#cheetahbanks

Cheetah Banks is chimerical, a character who oscillates between different ages, genders, sexualities and moods. We encounter their world through the languages of improvised dance, gesture, and clown, with their different ways of interacting with the public, musicality, and physicality.

Born in Florida in the 1980s, Cheetah Banks has come here to visit, but their driver’s license has expired and they can’t go back to Florida. Cheetah explains what it’s like to live in a strange land, whether it’s here or there. With images and scenes that go from ridiculous to intense, Cheetah shares their tactile and corporeal world that finds itself in constant slippage between the physicalities of flesh and blood and the borders of the imagination.

Vanessa Kamp is an American artist who comes from a background in sports and fiber art bringing a predilection for the tactile and sensory to her work which most recently is a fusion of improvisational dance and clown.
