Ecdysis (2024) Instead of my world, there would soon be only ice, snow, stillness, death; no more violence, no war, no victims; nothing but frozen silence, absence of life- Anna Kavan (Ice, 1967) Ecdysis is an audio-visual collaboration between rapper and performer, Iceboy Violet and artist and set designer, Ella Skinner. This piece is performed within an ice sculpture which changes on exposure to heat, light, body and movement. The ice barrier between the performer and audience morphs into a world of dis//embodiment, ir//reality, in//ex//ternality and in//authenticity, between fantasy and reality in which the inner becomes the outer and the exoskeleton is obliterated.

Ecdysis by Iceboy Violet and Ella Skinner “Instead of my world, there would soon be only ice, snow, stillness, death; no more violence, no war, no victims; nothing but frozen silence, absence of life” – Anna Kavan (Ice, 1967) Thank you so much to an amazing team for making this piece come to life. Its very important to us and something we’ve wanted to do for such a long time, years even, but everyone was too scared to take the risk of trapping a performer in ice. So so much love to Lithuania for your faith in our weird, manic vision. My heart bleeds and I’m still in shock.

┌┘┌┘ Tikime, ne vienam ilgamečiam AUDROS fanui, kuriam nesvetima festivalio meno programa, @ella666jo – pažįstamas vardas. Ji darkart sužibės mūsų programoje kovo 27 dieną Vilniuje, @cacvilnius , per AUDRA Showcase. Bilietai BIO. Ji – vaizduojamojo meno ir scenografijos kūrėja bei režisierė iš Velso. Pastarosios kūryba nagrinėja nusivylimą, apatiją ir nihilizmą, būdingus šiuolaikiniam gyvenimui. Naktinės programos metu, ŠMC prieeigose debiutuos šviežut šviežutėlis performansas KANKINYSTĖ KLUBE. Tai nebus performansas, vykstantis klube – veikiau, tai bus kas nutinka pačiam klubui. Tai nėra kažkas, ką reikia stebėti, bet tai, kas pamažu skleidžiasi architektūroje ir minioje: gyvas paveikslas, satyriškai vaizduojantis archetipus, cirkuliuojančius kultūrinėse erdvėse, institucijose ir šiuolaikinėje visuomenėje. Režisierė: @ella666jo ; Choreografija: @_itseglevi_ ; Dalyvauja: @izyyba , @zm_ka , @karmacharm_ , @nectar.of_the.gods . ┌┘┌┘ www.audrafestival.lt ┌┘┌┘ ┌┘┌┘We believe that for many long-time AUDRA fans familiar with the festival’s art program, @ella666jo is already a recognizable name. She will once again shine in our program on March 27 in Vilnius, at the Contemporary Art Centre, during the AUDRA Showcase. Tickets bio. Ella Skinner is a Welsh visual artist, set designer, and director known for her visceral performance work. Skinner’s work is concerned with the disillusionment, apathy, and nihilism that characterise contemporary life. During the night program of the event, Martyred will make their Club debut at CAC. It is not a performance that happens in the club, but something that happens to the club. Not something to be watched, but something that gradually unfolds within the architecture and the crowd – a living painting that satirises the archetypes circulating through cultural spaces, institutions, and contemporary society. Directed by @ella666jo ; Movement direction: @_itseglevi_ ; Performed by: @izyyba , @zm_ka , @karmacharm_ , @nectar.of_the.gods .

Ella Jo Skinner & Sasharroma: Meet Me Halfway Showcase by @metaraph_ in @clubelastica 26.02 22:40 Performative ritual set inside a nightclub, where a human exhausted by earthly life volunteers for a radical transformation—to become an angel. Starring @nectar.of_the.gods , with music by @burbulasaugalas , the piece blends confession, surgery, and transcendence into one symbolic act. Three angels perform a precise and unsettling procedure involving majestic wings, suspended between beauty and danger. The work moves between clinical coldness and emotional vulnerability, questioning what it means to escape the human condition. The night closes with an unexpected tonal shift, leaving the audience somewhere between tragedy, irony, and hope.

Ma Leana - hallways (all platforms live) To drop this track, I needed a visual world that matched the soul of the music. The incredible @ella666jo brought it to life. I’ve been a fan of her vision forever—now, it’s part of my story.
