kelechi agwuncha (they/them) is an Igbo-American multimedia artist who reanimates archival material, documentary, and video art by using percussive force as connective tissue. As a former athlete, their work also explores athletic gestures and spatiality as a rehearsal of play. Their approach to visual media and sound-making often prioritizes live manipulations of the image and incorporates outdoor, public sites—and the people who occupy them—directly into the work, in real-time. kelechi has done live audio-visual performances through spaces that include the Chicago Architectural Biennial, Currents New Media Festival, Santa Fe Noise Ordinance, and Black Harvest Film Festival.
