Floes, a multimedia collaboration of artist SoHyun Bae, choreographer Virginie Mécène and composer Judith Shatin, will premiere on the NEW@Graham: Graham and Tech at the Martha Graham Studio on March 18th and 19th at 7:00 p.m., 55 Bethune St. in New York City. Floes is the result of an interactive process, with each of the collaborators sharing their work and using it as a cross-media springboard that led to cross-media responses and discussion. Inspired by our concern for the havoc wrought by climate change and named for the large ice sheets that form ever more frequently on bodies of water around melting glaciers, our sonic/visual/ kinetic collaboration embodies formation, collision, breaking, flowing. This piece would not have been possible without technological mediation for the collaboration, including the flow of the video, dance and digital music, the latter created by processing underwater recordings of glaciers, Tickets available here.
