OOLOI presented by Shawna Wu and Wildblur: drawn from the Xenogenesis series by Octavia Butler with themes of interspecies love, otherness, connectivity, and transgressive intimacy. Shawna Wu is a Taiwanese artist based in NYC whose work holds both traditional and radical. Fresh off an SSENSE exclusive capsule launch, Shawna Wu presents a celebratory runway show and rave featuring local models, dancers, and queer DJs from across Southeast Asia.

Together with lighting collective Wildblur, OOLOI creates a space for radical beauty, sensuality, and interweaving. The event serves as a celebration for queerness and sensuality in all its hybrid forms, textures, and illuminations.

Playing with the shifting translucency and opacity of the dancefloor, WILDBLUR is a lighthouse/study group weaving light with the rhythms/waves of sound and flesh; a melodic percussion for the eyes, an organ to jam straight time. They are best known for providing illumination and percussive lighting for Brooklyn’s queer and trans underground raves including the monthly hyperpop party sksksk and the annual queer festival Honcho Campout.
