ARTEMIS is a multi-platform and multi-year opera (2020 – 2027) that focuses on the relationship between the female body, metal, technology, future and power. This project is inspired by NASA’s program Artemis, a space mission that will bring the first woman to the moon’s surface in 2026, 56 years later than the first man moon landing. The opera represents an archetype of the promise of technological gender equality in the 21st century, as the first woman on the moon would be an act of empowerment, a symbolic validation of the spaces and disciplines in which women can thrive. This opera aims to celebrate and bring light to this milestone in women’s history in our pursuit of knowledge and new discoveries. ARTEMIS Opera is envisioned as a transcultural coven, a rite of passage where the voices of women from all cultures and times resonate and get amplified.
In this project participates: Pauchi Sasaki (violin and electronics), Jennifer Curtis (violin), Grace Lin Anderson (cello), Brent Shields (doublebass), Omar Lavalle (video artist and tech supervisor) and Jack Lo (production). This concert was made possible with the additional support of the Peruvian Ministry of Culture and the Ibermusicas Fund “Ayuda a la circulación de profesionales de la música”.
