Seasonal Activities is a new, bi-monthly performance series with a focus on multi-disciplinarity, experimentation, interaction, conversation and refinement. Each night will showcase a selection of short pieces, from 10 – 20 minutes in length and a host.
Seasonal Activities looks for pieces that play with spatial dynamics and audience-performer relationships.
Volume i is curated by Andrew Gaboury
and supported by hub14 art and performance works
It is a wonderful, scary and large feeling to set up on the side of the street, unannounced, and step up onto a white box wearing all black and begin sharing physically-animated poetry and stream of conscious with whoever is passing by. Thanks to those that stopped, even for a moment, to hear a bit of the world I experience, and to Lisa Pijuan-Nomura and the James North Studio for hosting me this past weekend. It’s always a pleasure to share with and receive artistic impulses with the exciting city that is Hamilton.
I see a young man who’s searching for something.
A young, slender man in very good shape with a very radiant smile.
A tall, skinny caucasian, with a little bit of stubble. With a mole on your left cheek.
Over the last couple months, I’ve been working closely with Andrew Cromwell to hash out the theory, or, rather, the wonder that inspires our new show, Add Friend. The concept for this piece originated from the everyday balance (or lack of balance) between our online and offline lives. We question how we are defining, and being defined by what we put online and how easy it is to access everything about anything at all times.
Add Friend has been developed over the internet, and now it is ready to be presented to you as part of the Gallery Mini-Series at the 2014 Hamilton Fringe Festival.
