The Key

I’ve been developing a new project called “The Key” at David Cunningham Projects. Performance dates are: 4/31, 5/1, 5/10 and 5/30

Every performance is the expression of a single thought whose tentacles extend to enwrap gallery, performer and spectator in the necessity of its expression.  This thought is not simple but extends through ontology, phenomenology, aesthetics and metaphysics. It does not beg forgiveness for its complexity.  My process began with research on the Polish visual artist and theater practitioner Tadeusz Kantor.  Kantor believes that expression and speculation, not elucidation or understanding, are at the center of the artistic effort- both physically and ephemerally.
