Embodied Architecture: PROXIMITIES

New York, NY, USRelated
Embodied Architecture: PROXIMITIES is a performance and installation exploring the relationships between spatial proximity, density and affect. It opens with a choreographed exploration by 57 performers within the gallery who engage with compositional opposites—near/far, proximal/distant, connected/disconnected—and the states in between creating a shifting, evolving and immersive environment for visitors. Performers become walls, corridors and rooms, reframing our interactions with and perceptions of shared space. The performance is accompanied by a multi-channel sound installation that runs in 7-minute intervals.
Following the opening night, the gallery will feature recordings of the performance in multi-channel projections, digital displays and a series of mixed media drawings. The relationship of the live performance to the screen-based installation evokes the frequent use of digital devices as the primary source of human connection in contemporary society.
