Dialogues 5: Georgia Beatty presents "The Book of Stars"

Dialogues: A Conversation and Performance is a series of events in which we invite someone to discuss their creative process and present an aspect or aspects of their work. For this fifth edition we present Baltimore based musician Georgia Beatty who will be presenting "The Book of Stars".

"The Book of Stars" combines original music with a magic lantern show to tell the story of the Light Queen, who is reborn every 3,000 years to recall the songs of Light and use them to heal Earth from oppressive powers. Exploring resonance as both a musical and ancestral concept, visuals, song and story guide the audience through a grounding ritual to discover the present body as a living archive; capable of healing a broken world.

Georgia Beatty is a musician and folk artist, focused on cycle, lineage and healing through cultural transmission. Their work has two taproots growing at equally feverish rates in the paradoxically woven worlds of songwriting and traditional music. They play fiddle, cello and sing. Georgia’s study as a fiddler is in Norwegian music.
