SALT: Work-in-Progress
Performance from André Zachery

Saturday, April 20, 2024 • 5-6:30PM

Venue: Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center.

“Salt” is an excerpt from a current work-in-development collaboration between interdisciplinary choreographer André M. Zachery and interdisciplinary sound/media artist Sadah Espii Proctor entitled “Against Gravity: Flying Afrikans and Other Urban Legends.” This section is named and inspired by a novel of the same name by Trinidadian writer Earl Lovelace, the tale of “Igbo Landing” and the legend of “the people who could fly.” The relationship between “the water” and “flight” is symbiotic and at times reciprocal in African Diaspora cultural landscapes. This excerpt contends with how we are moving the speculative, unseen and yet to be heard towards the center of our trajectory while collectively engaging in futuring practices.

This event is part of Moving with Screens + Machines: A Symposium on Embodied Practices and Technology.
