Rory Pilgrim (1988, Bristol UK) is an artist currently on a residency in Dakar exploring queer/LGBT experience in Africa. Through the employment of performance, video and music his work reveals autobiographical accounts in dialogue with other individuals. The starting point being a personal question, Rory seeks to unravel religious structures that manifest through ritual, music and aesthetics. He does so by retaining an element of expression, collective experience, and understanding in his artistic practice.
