Over the weekend, multidisciplinary FKA twigs danced in a box in the middle of a crowded dance floor in New York City as part of her sold-out rave events. Ahead of her NYC performance, the artist performed an exceptional show in Los Angeles on Oct. 16, also in a box but without walls. The coveted dance events were in support of her forthcoming third studio album, EUSEXUA, which arrives on January 24, 2025. At each rave, Twigs invited a carefully curated line-up of artists to perform.
Twigs credits her experiences in Prague’s underground techno scene as the inspiration for the EUSEXUA album. At the time, she was filming The Crow.
Eusexua is a state of being. A feeling of momentary transcendence often evoked by art, music, sex, and unity. Eusexua can be followed by a state of bliss and feelings of limitless possibility. Also used to refer to: ‘The pinnacle of Human Experience’. Eusexua is the moment right before an orgasm. Eusexua is melding into one being with the perfect stranger you’re making out with. Eusexua is losing track of time while losing yourself on the dance floor. Eusexua is the rush of inspiration that accompanies the birth of an idea. Eusexua can be many things to many people. It’s a nebulous concept, ever-evolving with those who experience it. But it is united through any moment in which we are fully embodying ourselves, present in the moment, disconnected from technology, synthesized with those around us.
