INZOZI ZANJYE, “my dreams” in Kinyarwanda, is a multidisciplinary performance, situated between concert, dance and theater, unfolding as a journey through the landscapes of Dushime’s existence. As an artist of Rwandan descent living in Belgium, Dushime has moved between two worlds, never fully landing in either. This in-betweenness created a deep need to understand where she belongs. Through that search, she experienced feelings of displacement and alienation, creating a burden that sometimes felt greater than her own life. In this piece, Dushime travels through the chambers lying within her: her memories, her longing, her grief, her joy. She finds herself in a dreamscape, a space between the self and the soul, where familiar narratives dissolve and time deconstructs into a non-linear reality. Every element in this work carries a voice, a presence: the protagonist (Dushime), the guide and soul (dancer), the ancestors (choir and ensemble) and the world itself. These forces are in ongoing dialogue in which memory, body and spirit intertwine. Nothing is placed without purpose, everything speaks and everything listens. At the intersection of music, movement, storytelling and imagery, a journey of surrender, searching, listening, understanding and liberation unfolds. INZOZI ZANJYE invites you to witness a transformation, in the hope of collectively anchoring and connecting.
