A fascination with death and absence lies at the heart of choreographer and dancer Inés Sybille Vooduness' connection to voodoo, which she explores in the context of Haitian magical realism. In _Simbi em águas astronômicas_ ("Simbi in astronomical waters"), a performance influenced by Angolan _kuduro_, she creates a transtemporal ritual which dialogues with Simbi and her initiatory capacity.

Inés Sybille Vooduness, coreógrafa e bailarina, conecta-se ao vodu por uma pulsão de morte e ausência, explorando o realismo maravilhoso haitiano. Em _Simbi em águas astronômicas_, com um movimento influenciado pelo kuduro angolano, cria um ritual transtemporâneo que dialoga com Simbi e com a sua capacidade iniciática.
