From Swan Lake to the Spice Girls via a bodybuilder mother, Made Not Born is me search for belonging.
Made Not Born is a solo performance that deals with Vanessa’s personal story of growing up in Hertfordshire, trying to fit in; trying to figure out who she am, or who she wants to be. In a country saturated by US influence, can there be such a thing as a Black British female identity?
In the creation of this piece, it became clear that Vanessa’s relationship with her mum is a significant part of her search for belonging. The performance uses such influences as being confused by the Internet, her mother’s body and their link, to navigate a way to view her life, in her body in Britain
