“Moundscapes” by Kathy Westwater ✨⬇️⬇️

🗓: December 8-10
⏱: 8:00pm EST
🎟: $15 – $20

Moundscapes reprises choreographic fragments from past iterations of PARK, a nearly fifteen-year inquiry into the site of Fresh Kills Landfill that contends with themes of environmental trauma, grief, and complicity. The piece includes a duet performed atop “tree shoes,” towering platform sandals fabricated from salvaged tree branches that reference 16th -century chopine sandals and an early era of excess consumption. The work also features a new extended solo performed by Westwater, that engages a mass of the artist’s own discarded household textiles.

Join us for a 2-day workshop with Jermaine Spivey + Spenser Theberge, with Troy Ogilvie as Panel Moderator 💫💥

🗓: November 12 + 13, 2022

📍: Gibney 280 Broadway (Studio U)

Jermaine and Spenser create independently and collaboratively in order to better understand their artistic perspectives both separately and in conversation. The research of this workshop will very much mimic that practice.

By spending time on personal practice and a practice that is in response to others, the hope is to find a state of working that exists in two places at once with awareness of self and awareness of others in order to find more ways forward in the work. 🌀
