Ida Sophia: Patience and Penitentia
Ida Sophia’s installation and durational performance Patience and Penitentia explores the painful and damaging experience of relational withdrawal—the silent treatment—in a work that enacts the power dynamics, strategies of control and form of punishment at its core. Over the span of the exhibition, a participatory ritual performed by the artist and a select number of performers will see Sophia incorporate elements of sound, language, movement and gesture to publicly transfigure private suffering through collective release.
