'From: Memory. To: Present' - ALBARKAS Workshop with Verónica Peña
Event description
Join interdisciplinary artist Verónica Peña for an engaging hands-on workshop exploring Performance Art. Open to all, this experience will offer you an opportunity to learn about the inners of performance art, discover tools to naturally begin practicing, and contribute to ALBARKAS by collectively building the sculptural object Verónica will use for her public performance.
Participants are asked to bring a personally meaningful object, as the workshop will focus on transforming the memories and emotions it evokes into gestures of liberation. Through guided exercises, conversations, and live examples, we will explore the connections between past and present, and poetically engage with body, time, and space.
Since 2010, Verónica has been exploring participation, including interactive performances and workshops in iconic locations like Times Square, and the School of Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC).
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect, express, and immerse yourself in performance art.
Let go and explore the depths of memory, presence, and human connection!
We will provide a Hari Krishna vegan meal as part of the workshop.
