Raoni Saleh is een Afghaanse kunstenaar die in Amsterdam woont en performance, poëzie en het geluid van kreunen gebruikt om verhalen over (cultureel) becoming te verdraaien en opnieuw vorm te geven.

"My work’s focus is to play with fugitivity, to elude capture by never settling. Applying dance and sound as a transformational kind of poësis, I am searching for how to continuously be in a state of incompleteness. I am obsessed with artistic practice that is deeply engaged with the entanglement of body, spirit, politics and love within art. Through the use of materials such as movement, voice, text and textile I pull onto the stage a serious kind of play that temporarily immerses both spectators and performers in otherworldly thinking, feeling and relating."
