15.02.2010. Performing in cinema has been GéNIA's dream for a while. So when Will Dutta, the producer and founder of Black Canvas Series, invited GéNIA to take part in one of the shows she happily agreed. Her performance at Black Canvas Series at the British Film Institute, London, in February 2010 with the music by Somei Satoh, Erik Satie, Gabriel Prokofiev and Max de Wardener was accompanied by stunning visuals from film maker Ravi Deepres and photographer Elisabeth Scheder-Bieschin. The evening also included performances from Warp Records' and British award winning composer Mira Calix, visualist Quayola and cellist Oliver Coates. London-based photographer Pamela Troni also took a few pictures from that night.
