The Ubiquitous Mass of Us
June 14, 2014
In The Ubiquitous Mass of Us, Maree ReMalia | merrygogo investigates the way we take up space. From silly to somber, the performance oscillates between movement and sound, exploring a broad range of physical expressions as it flows in and around the work of visual artist Blaine Siegel. Experience this singular group of artists through their investigations into the occupation and demarcation of space. Featuring Joseph Hall, Taylor Knight, Paul Kruse, Adil Mansoor, Moriah Ella Mason, Jil Stifel, and Anna Thompson with David Bernabo and costume designer Rachel Vallozzi.
