Retreat (for Camila)

Retreat (for Camila)

August 3, 5-8p @ Rosekill Farm

A performance gathering/ Rest-in to honor the memory of artist Camila Cañeque, organized by friends and colleagues

Camila Cañeque (Barcelona, 1984-2024) was a visual artist and poet who embodied an existential fatigue as a form of resistance. Her work included performance, video, installation and writing. From a disenchanted perspective, her work explored isolation, alienation and fatigue to question the frenetic pace of our society.

Are you sleeping?

Yes.

Are you sleeping said the voice. Yes I said.

Are you sleeping I asked. Yes he said.

An Emptying 24h Performance Day 2

AN EMPTYING
24h Performance Program

Saturday & Sunday July 20-21, 10a-10p

On gathering an aftermath as it unfolds- ‘An Emptying’ is a 24 hour performance art program featuring durational performance works and ephemeral installations. This program is part of Upstate Art Weekend 2024

Free and open to the public. RSVP highly recommended

PARTICIPATING ARTISTS: MILLICENT YOUNG, VERÓNICA PEÑA, ALEXIS ELTON, MICHAEL ASBILL, MANASA THIMMIYA APPANERAVANDA, ELLEN CARPENTER, SIRALIA FOUNDATION AND KYRIAKOS APOSTOLIDIS

ORGANIZED BY LITAL DOTAN

‘An Emptying’ 24h program is part of a year long theme that looks at the aftermath of performance as part of its becoming.  The works presented will be embodying the notion of “emptying” as an ongoing action from various physical, alchemical and gestural perspectives. Durational performances will be exploring submergence, participatory hovering sites, an ongoing weaving of surrealistic matter, a work of endurance and exhaustion, a cyclical micro-healing offering, along gentle participatory actions and activations.

Among the durational live performances happening on the grounds throughout the program, will be three process-based installations around our new site, which was flooded in 2011 and vacant since- Alexis Elton will be activating wicking salt sculptures, Michael Asbill creates an environment of carbonized charcoal and Millicent Young looks at rusting, a process chorus for an ongoing emptying.

The program will be physically engaging the grounds with an emptying, while acknowledging that any process of emptying is always simultaneously, and relationally, filling.
