What is home for a wanderlust?

LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES SUMMER/FALL 2024: OUTSIGHT
Wanderlust is an endless exploration of the idea of home , as an immigrant artist. This concept is very wide. For a lot of us that has lived and grown up in different places, the feeling of belonging becomes vague and hard to grasp. What is home? What’s belonging?! Do we belong to the language that we speak or the language that we think?! While exploring all of these concepts, Wanderlust gives the space to the audience to be part of process of exploration and sharing as a community, as part of her ongoing project.

It features public performances by international and local artists working within areas of dance, theater, performance art, experimental music, and butoh. Most OUTSIGHT artists have been part of the LEIMAY Incubator Program which provides them with process-focused resources. The performances are set within one of NYRP’s community gardens.
OUTSIGHT is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council, the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and the Mertz Gilmore Foundation
