Performance on Fri 10/1 @ 7PM
Watch as spirit bundles are placed in trees in a ritual-like performance @ SPACES.
Huh?
As part of Cleveland Arts Prize Goes Live, the public was invited to make spirit bundles for “Seeking Radiance,” the latest CAP Goes Live performance. The bundles “may transmit the energies of those individuals who have been stolen from this life enabling their positive energy to spread through our environment in hopes of a better future.”
Background, please:
For one week, SPACES’ will play host to a ghostly environment, punctuated with a performance and original music. Inspired by Robin VanLear’s research into the Rwanda genocide, the atrocities against women in the Congo and the siege of Sarajevo, this exhibition and performance recalls loss and brutality while looking for healing and hope. A grove of trees fashioned by VanLear from Lake Erie driftwood and rebar will house a delicate and radiant flamework boroscilica glass vessel from Brent Kee Young’s Matrix Series.
A collaboration between Robin VanLear, Brent Kee Young, Paul Cox and Story Rhinehart Cadiz.
