Performance by Anaiis

Performances from emerging and legendary artists, shot directly from the artists’ home countries and unique settings – from an empty concert hall to a snowy mountain peak- will boost the Festival experience and inspire leaders across sectors and individuals to “do things differently” and #TurnItAround for the Global Goals. Shows are curated in collaboration with artists and networks bringing the world together through music, poetry and art.

French-Senegalese singer and musician Anaiis has lived multiple lives. Moving from Toulouse, to Dublin, to Dakar, to California and finally to London, Anaiis’s feeling of belonging everywhere and nowhere has added many colours to her creative palette. Her music explores narratives of blackness, but purposefully seeks to defy any attempts to reduce Blackness into a singular narrative, instead showing human nature in all its complexity. The intimate video will draw you in and inspire you to do small things that have a big impact – just like this performance!
