SLIDING SCALE DOOR ENTRY $1O – $15 DOLLARS or purchase tickets through http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2959235TNMOT AZTRO, a Hartford-based performance art and dance installation company featuring artists from Connecticut and beyond, will perform the fifth installment of The Projector Series on June 22nd, 23rd, 24th Performances at 7pm and 9pm each night. The series are a set of performance and installation works blending dance, live digitally composed music, and Film based visual media. Presented in collaboration with Vox Populi and Little Berlin.
The Projector Series 1.5 utilizes a combination of light, sound, spatial manipulation, the human form, and movement as modes of inquiry and engagement between audience and performer, as well as the larger community beyond. Thematic concerns center around repetition, time, critical thought, media-created leadership and influence, rhetoric, technology, control, sexual energy and dogma.
“The Projector Series 1.5 which will be performed at Vox Populi, is driven by the concept of sensory overload, in which our brains and bodies are stimulated through receiving information from multiple sources simultaneously. The projectors around the room transform the physical boundaries of the space: gallery walls become windows and mirrors and vortexes, looking outward at the world beyond, looking inward at the performance.” said choreographer Arien Wilkerson.
“ Little Berlin and Vox Populi are both inspiring places to show work at. I am honored they are committed to retransmitting how it’s audience judge, weigh and scale the impact of this work. Overall we are ecstatic to bring this work to philadelphia ,” said Wilkerson.
The Projector Series 1.5 is the first live Philadelphia performance by a Hartford-based performance art and dance installation to be held at Vox Populi. The Performance will take place in Vox’s Black Box and also feature a before the show talk June 21st 7pm
