RSVPs are already *at capacity* for Schindler House Haunting, a site-specific performance triptych by jas lin 林思穎, commissioned by homeLA as a part of the MAK Center's centennial celebration "Schindler House: 100 Years in the Making."
In this haunting, lin builds on R.M. Schindler’s “space architecture,” which shattered notions of useful domestic space partitioning interior and exterior, self and Other. By inviting the “domestic uncanny,” lin mutates the Schindler House into a haunted house where the values and familiarities of the American nuclear family home are turned inside out. Fear of the ghost is fear of the Other– a gaze that turns marginalized bodies into ghosts. By embodying a figure of abjection, resistance, and revenge, lin collapses boundaries between human and Other, making visible the repression and oppression organized under dominant social frameworks. The house becomes a stage, and the haunting, a performance, transforming the Schindler House into an in-between space with no return to normality.
jas lin 林思穎 (they/them) is a performance artist and choreographer based on Tongva Land. lin stages exorcisms and tantrums for purging choreographies of the learned body and shutting down internal and external surveillance cameras that suggest there is a proper way to move through the world. @allthatjasss
Flash warning: The second part of the performance contains flashing lights.
