Please join us for a virtual iteration of Salvage Rituals–Chapter 6, repatterning. This event will include a live stream recording of the performance from March 16th & 17th, as well as archived Salvage Rituals video material.
This offering is an experiment in repatterning—an exploration of how we might return to performance material created pre-pandemic. What would it look like to develop a process that honors change, shifting needs, capacities, and boundaries of a creative team? Can we create a space to more deeply prioritize collective care and shared embodiment?
Chapter 6, repatterning offers the third iteration of Salvage Rituals, continuing the parallel practices of body-based ritual and myth making as strategies for sustaining. This iteration will present salvaged archives recounting the histories of this creative journey, the final chapter of the staying body and the leaving body mythology, and a re-visiting/reimaging of a physical sustaining score on a hexagonal platform embedded with piezoelectric material that transforms the mechanical stress from the performers’ bodies into electrical current, actively powering lights in the space.
Performers/collaborators include Jeffrey Azevedo, Alyza DelPan-Monley, Sophie Franco, Alice Gosti, Alexandra Harding, Clare Hatlo, Maria Manness, Erin McCarthy, Stefan Richmond, and Tim Smith-Stewart
Salvage Rituals is a National Performance Network (NPN) Creation & Development Fund Project co-commissioned by On the Boards (Seattle) in partnership with Risk/Reward (Portland) and NPN. The Creation & Development Fund is supported by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
