[ ] is a corporeal and sonic exploration into histories of femme ancestors co-created by choreographer Adrienne Westwood and composer Angélica Negrón. Together with six performers, they develop an embodied exploration of untold and imagined histories. Weaving throughout a sonic sculpture, the group uses performance’s hyper-attentive care to call in and hold experiences of private and personal memories of family lore, real and imagined histories, and womxn’s visible/invisible labor, ultimately asking “what is long ago, but still right now?”

[ ] is anchored by an interactive, sonic sculpture, from which “objects of memory,” a compiling of simple, referential cut- out golden objects, are suspended. It evokes associations of a mobile, a planetary model, the branches of a tree, a constellation map, a memory palace, a machine. This sonic sculpture calls upon Negrón’s changing sound banks through use of MIDI technology, and production design incorporates moments of video (including live-feed) using the same technology to emphasize the feel of a collective experience. Alternating dynamically synchronous movement with individual, intimate isolation, the six performers swing, propel, pause, and enfold through the sculpture, activating the “objects of memory” tone by tone. Each fills the space with its own resonance, thus summoning our memories through, by, and for the performers.

The event will take place on Thursday, September 7th, from 5:30-7:00pm.
