Biennale d’art performatif de Rouyn-Noranda (17-20 October 2018)
WIND (We Invent Neutral Defence) was designed as a series of performance art vignettes with audience members accessing the performance space in small groups. The episodic performances emerged from the artist team’s contemplation of the wind–an ever-present and formidable force where they are located in Southern Alberta–and is meant as a dialogue with the natural forces around us that characterize place. From the project statement: “…seeking to make a situation for contemplation and encounter, a bounding box in which to manifest instances though which we listen, respond, dialogue with an old friend, a force, a consistent character, though disembodied. Currents are de-territorialized pathways…mutable, unfixed, ever shifting. The artists seek to create a container for non-urgent intimate experience.”
