About the MX Oops performance:

Nature Boi (6 min)

Creative Direction/Choreography/Vocals/Lyrics/Costume/Sound+Video Design: MX Oops

Music: Omen Phaze

Nature Boi is a multimedia dance performance ritual honoring the Divine Femme. Video projection, rap, dance, and a handmade, multilayered costume come together in a meditational booty bass invocation shrouded in queer possibility.

The Institute of Contemporary Art San Francisco (ICA SF), is a brand new, always free, non-collecting contemporary art museum opening at 901 Minnesota street in the Dogpatch. We are dedicated to experimenting in public, operating transparently, and embracing constant reinvention in the realm of contemporary art. We’ll be bringing exhibitions, programming, and social opportunities to the neighborhood, and look forward to broadening the possibilities for civic and creative engagement within the vibrant ecosystem of San Francisco and the Bay Area.
