Performances by Molly Kreppel, Connie Freitas, Tomorrow Rising, Genesis y.m., G Am Ani, Emilio Rojas. The Fragility of Time and Space was a Festival that occured on March 31st 2010 at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. The fragility of time and space was a concept developed within the questions of time as a non-linear component of performance art, and as well as how the space occupies time just as much as time occupies space.
Short Description :
Emilio worked with the length of tape cassettes and using their physical properties to entrap and guide the audience, the physical time of the cassettes and real time were confronted.
Molly Kreppel danced aggressively and sparatic to a loop of a children song sped up, the time recorded was altered and made weak.
Tomorrow Rising painted the gallery space white during the Festival. Dealing with space and time within performance itself.
Genesis y.m. sanded down smooth a 24 by 42 cm rectangle on a white wall separated by a shutter light. Dealing with the time of the day (the sun outside causing the shadow light) as well as the time it took to sand down this portion of the wall, well the audience stood waiting, and the difference or effect of that time spent.
Connie Freitas combined video with performance, using voice and image with silhouette play between the form of her body against the forms in the video, while dealing with the concept of time as a fragile impassable matter.
G Am Ani sat partially nude within a plastic veil while reading, with tomatoes available to be thrown, smashed etc. on her at the audience’s desire, the space within her veil as well as the space in which the tomatoes were thrown was the focus of the audience.
