Description

Cruising at 30 Kilometers a Second and Attempting Not To Crash

by Kevin Jesuino

This is a recording of a performance that streamed live on;
February 13 | 2 PM Mountain Time

A community participatory performance that examines how human bodies are in relationship to nature and examines theatrical and human failure through the lens of LGBTQ+ & BIPOC individuals.

Conceived by multidisciplinary artist facilitator, teacher, arts producer and community organizer – Kevin Jesuino – the online show features fifteen participants who identify as part of, or as allies with Edmonton’s LGBT or BIPOC communities.

Participants include Shrina Patel, Sebastian Rueda, Sar J Culkin, Roseanna Joy Nay, Nuala Kennedy, NIUBOI, Moses Kouyaté, Monica Gate, Mitchell Chalifoux, Falon Scheers, and Giovanni Young

Without complete knowledge of each other’s activities, participants journey into nature to pre-record a video based on a simple score provided by Jesuino. All footage remains unedited and unseen until it’s played simultaneously at a live performance.
