Description
A durational solo performance project by Linda Austin, 3 miles of possible explores the poetic and practical associations of “the possible” in a world of fluctuating personal, material, political and artistic contingencies.
In a series of late afternoon performances, Austin will present the first mile of this work, in which she animates and travels along a series of spatial paths envisioned as giant drawings,
spells, and/or runes. These paths are threaded through with a variety of movement scores, choreographies, tasks, interactions with objects, texts, songs, and environmental sounds.
When completed, the trajectory will total three
miles. It will take as long as it takes.
Although much of
the investigation is movement based, visual, sonic, textual and
discursive interventions will touch upon utopian thinking, possible world theory, and modal logic.
- This work-in-progress is estimated to last about 1 hour and 45 min. from 4:30-6:15 as the late afternoon light changes.
- Audience can come and go and change seats as available.
- A maximum of 12 tickets are available for each of the 7 performances
- Audience members must be vaccinated against COVID-19 or show proof of a negative COvid test taken within 72 hours of performance and wear masks. The fully-vaccinated artist will not be wearing a mask.
Following the performance, guests are invited to join the artist in the backyard for beverages and talk.
