Correspondences - Snug Harbor Cultural Center
FIGMENT 2022
Ximena Garnica + Shige Moriya & LEIMAY Ensemble
In ‘Correspondences,’ individual performers wearing gas masks are enclosed inside transparent chambers partially filled with sand. As the performers repeatedly try to stand atop the sand, machines attached to the chambers intermittently trigger a blast of sand causing the performers to sink back down to the ground. The sand blasts continuously occur in the chambers, even in the absence of a performer.
