Thanks @valeskapopuloh for these pics and clips!
This Friday June 6th at Black Cherry: Three stunning pieces for the eyes and ears by Liz Downing @donwingdowning , Alicia Puglionesi & Carrie Fucile, and Erik Ruin @erikruin
7pm Show
(6:30pm Doors open)
Tickets available now at Blackcherry.org
Sliding scale $12.50-$17.50
Liz Downing: 'Shadow Mother'--Psychotherapy by way of Toy Theater with voice, banjo, and puppetry. The setting is the dark, infinite land of the Id. One puppet is "Self" who speaks and the other is “Shadow Mother,” who sings.
Alicia Puglionesi and Carrie Fucile: 'Circles In Absolute Night'--The story of descending into a cave with spoken word, live sound, and projected video. Why do we put faith in false promises and what is it like to be a rock? We will shed light on these questions.
Erik Ruin: 'All That Is Solid'--An audio-visual environment that layers/juxtaposes quietly transcendentalist video observations of everyday life alongside hand-drawn animations and cut paper projections. A series of reckonings with the state of the state, the self, society, the environment, the interpenetration and complicity of them/us all. *Featuring live improvised musical accompaniment by Orlando Johnson and Liz Downing
