Artist Statement:
The work engages with improvisations of collaborating performers along with live video feeds and projections of the performer(s). Overall this exhibition culminates into a collective presentation of live performance, video and drawings depicting performers from previous rehearsals/performances.
Thematically the exhibition negotiates between mathematical geometry and live bodily improvisation. The work for this exhibition continues with more than a decade of collaborative performance work transformed into video work along with drawings and or paintings.
