About this Event

with Abby Crain | Activation Stage Programs | PLEASE. STAY. TOUCH. Jess Curtis Experiments with Gravity

The exhibition PLEASE. STAY. TOUCH. Jess Curtis Experiments with Gravity includes an Activation Stage led by artists-in-residence whom Curtis mentored. Each artist serves as curator-facilitator-performers for events, performances, and happenings that engage deeply with Curtis’s legacy and archive. Each artist presents a program that also extends Curtis’s commitment to inclusive, innovative performance practice and embodied presence.

Abby Crain writes, “Score for eight performers //  this unfolds over time // particulate matter // this is not a reduction // we are on the edge of the ocean // the day becomes night // the night opens up.”

Come together to explore themes of loss and healing.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Abby Crain (she/her) works through transposition of the processes of dancing / dance making / the studio / performance making, into the practice of the essay / the poem / the story / the classroom, and vice versa. Her work is an ongoing, multidisciplinary effort to take note of/ recognize that which is perceived or awakened via sensation, experience, memory, and dreams through formats of writing, dancing, reading, pedagogy, and performance.
