“A Meal Dream Portraits”

Multimedia artist, director and choreographer Colombian-Japanese duo Ximena Garnica and Shige Moriya share a personal meditation on food through a visual poem of enigmatic landscapes, ambiguous bodies and mythical characters. “A Meal Dream Portraits” hints at society’s post-industrial relationship to food and is a companion piece to the artists’ immersive live performance “A Meal,” which is in development at HERE.

Featuring the LEIMAY Ensemble and guests: Masanori Asahara, Krystel Copper, Ximena Garnica, Andrea Jones, Cora Laszlo, Michael Mangieri, Shige Moriya, Aono Oyanagi, Brandon Perdomo, Irena Romendik; with music by Nao Sakamoto and co-edited with Catalina Santamaria.
