Intersection 2024 Performance Art at Wonzimer 5PM Doors 6PM Performances Start 7PM End In the essay “Wind Daruma,” Hijikata Tatsumi describes a figure of wind which sweeps up and through identifiable bodies, transforming, erasing, “immolating” them. The Yupik word for “Self”, “Weather”, “other” and “wind” is the same Ella, a sort of motion that intertwines our interior space and the exterior world in an emphatic and enduring dance. Intersection is a site-specific project dedicated to exploring the interconnectivity of painting, sound, dance, and film. The goal is to construct a non-hierarchical entwinement of these traditionally separate mediums. The entwinement prioritizes sensation, embodiment, and synesthesia. The artists rely on improvisation, play, and dialoguing, and the let’s-say-“tactile” intertwining of one’s physical being with the spatio-temporal fabric in which one exists.
