We had a blast @mercuryprojectsa moving, drawing, and discussing during the workshop Resonant Bodies. String theory, muscle fibers, neuronal pathways, and balls of string became points of departure for chalk, crayons, and charcoal. Can’t wait to see you all for day two of the workshop with @teletextile
So excited for the next workshop Resonant Bodies co-hosted by @teletextile and @naomievenaberle . This workshop is part of a month long series which will lead to a final performance titled Strings of Life. Workshop takes place @mercuryprojectsa
UPDATE FOR THIS WORKSHOP: We are changing location for this event! Those who have been invited please DM me or if you have my number, text me for the new address!
Avoid wearing dresses, skirts or super loose clothing because it will interfere with the harness and alter the experience. It is likely that the workshop will be shorter than advertised on this flyer so show up promptly. No need to bring any materials. Looking forward to this workshop :)
Join Naomi Even-Aberle and Pamela Martinez @teletextile for Resonant Bodies: Mapping Connection Through Movement, a collaborative workshop exploring connection, disruption, and transformation through movement, large-scale drawing, tearing, weaving, and collective making.
Together, participants will create evolving visual works that reflect cycles of creation and repair while contributing to Pamela’s developing performance project Strings of Life, an ongoing collaborative process leading toward a future performance at @artpace
You can also experience the process during the Loose Strings Exhibition at @mercuryprojectsa on May 30, 6–9pm.
We’re excited to gather, experiment, and create together in an open and welcoming environment.
Supported by @getcreativesa COSA Department of Arts & Culture.
Tuesday May 5 starts a month long of brainstorms / rehearsals / workshops for my next performance piece String of Life. These are small group explorations to devise what the full performance will become 7+ months from now @artpace . If you’re interested in joining and know my work send me a message and I’ll let you know if we have room on a certain day. Hoping to keep things small and intimate to make some authentic progress, but excited to share the process of becoming. All are invited to the Loose Strings Exhibition @mercuryprojectsa May 30, 6-9pm to see what we’ve come up with on our giant mood board which will be the gallery walls. This is project is supported by @getcreativesa COSA Dep or Arts & Culture.
Announcing Strings of Life, performance project coming in winter. We start our big group collaboration brainstorms this May for what will become my next major work.
🚨‼️Event Postponed to Fall 2026 Due to Inclement Weather, see latest post for more info🚨‼️
Our Pollinator Tea Party is getting a HUGE infusion of creativity as we celebrate spring and the pollinators that come with it.
The Bug Hotel will be transformed into a mini art museum featuring work by 10 local artists. The Estela Avery Education Center at Confluence Park will become a tea house set within a larger-than-life garden world by our Arts Ambassador, @ashleypaints_
Along the trail that wraps around the Education Center, you’ll encounter giant glowing mushrooms made from recycled materials by our fabulous featured artist, @uriwhitehead
Under the pavilion, experience fantastic projections using a digital microscope and image mixer, brought to life with your help by @om.i.god & @teletextile . There will also be a live mural created with spray paint by @souplaws & @itschristiekaye
To sounds provided by @_novasoul
All free and family-friendly!
Come see it all for yourself on April 11 from 6–10 PM at Confluence Park.

We’re making a River Themed mixed tape for the @sariverfoundation and this is the FINAL WEEK to submit to River Tapes 🎧🌊 We’re looking for music and sound-based work inspired by the San Antonio River—its calm waters, slow currents, subtle movement, and the communities and ecosystems that shape it. Accepting: songs, instrumentals, spoken word and sound-based compositions for this release with @htrgrds and @heavyheavyco
Selected artists will be featured on a limited cassette release + receive an honorarium. Don’t miss it—this one leans soft, deep, and intentional.
Apply now — link in bio of @sariverfoundation
SOUND WAVE EXPLORATION this sat at @sabgtx
I’ll be doing a public demonstration of the Math of Sound & Vibrational Instruments for the first time ever during Celebrate Pi Day. I’m super excited to collaborate with @f_futamura a mathematician and professor at @southwesternu who studies math in art and more. Experience the resonant tones of crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, the gong and the harp while discovering how frequency, patterns, and waveforms connect music and math. We will talk about the principles behind π, circles, and natural patterns also shape the sounds we hear. Supported by @simonsfoundation
