The audience is drawn into a dance and music performance set on a stage designed to resemble a bedroom in the Laguardia Houses, a public housing project in the Lower East Side.
Yemenwed is a project series founded in 2006 by the artist Gloria Maximo. Through the disciplines of sculpture, architecture, painting, video, animation, costuming, dance, and musical composition, Yemenwed has produced objects, installation, videos, and zines. Yemenwed’s work often engages abstracted themes of displacement and detachment, fluid identity, and the peripheral imaginary, while developing an expanding network of symbolic forms, objects, characters, and architecture. Yemenwed artists have participated in exhibitions, and performances, in New York at the Asia Song Society Gallery, Bard College, The Center for Book Arts, Fake Estate Gallery, Gavin Brown’s Enterprise, John Connelly Presents, Museum of Modern Art, and the Mori Art Museum (Tokyo).
Presented by Fake Estate. Part of Lust Weekend.
