A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
A film performance about Guy then, and Guy now, as a metaphor for the passing of time, which of course all film is inherently about.
Offering a crip grief transformation and witness altar. A place to sit and breathe, remember our dead, wash our hands and leave offerings to and for loved ones we’ve lost – and for ourselves. Expect fire and a little bit of smoke. Concluding with a D/deaf centered social space with conversational interpreters available for those who do not speak ASL.
