Join us for an aerial straps performance in the gallery featuring exhibiting artist, alexandra virginia martin and performance artist Maya Davis. Through their engagement in this movement practice, alexandra has found its principals increasingly informing their artistic body. alexandra’s aerial performance will hover over their exhibition installation and accompany its muscular offerings to tenderness in celebration of communal being and existence.

The performance will begin at 1 pm followed by an informal artist talk and conversation at 1:30 pm. Light refreshments will be served on ceramics lovingly handmade by alexandra virginia martin, which will also be available for purchase.

alexandra virginia martin (b. 1993) (any/all) is a queer, fluid, sculptor, fabricator, public art organizer and fledgling aerial straps artist living and working in Detroit / Waawiyaatanong, Anishinaabe territory. Taking the many forms of poems, castings, vessels and durational installations composed of biodegradable materials, their practice highlights interactions between materials and the ways their environments act upon them.

alexandra virginia martin’s solo exhibition will be on view at The Sculpture Center April 26 – June 15, 2024.
