Our first performance of the Fall season brings us outside the walls of The Kitchen and into the park 🍃More info on how to join us in this two-part performance below!*⁠ ⁠ Arising out of a partnership with Madison Square Park Conservancy @madsqparknyc is the premiere of a new performance project by Beau Bree Rhee @atelierdegeste, “Shadow of the Sea,” conceived in dialogue with Cristina Iglesias’s exhibition “Landscape and Memory” at Madison Square Park.⁠ ⁠ The piece is created through multi-layered research into scientific maps projecting future coastlines; historical maps of Indigenous pathways in New York City; Indigenous spiritual beliefs; recordings of land that Rhee stewards as an earth work; and poems and songs on ecology and justice, particularly the books “Poésie Perdue” (published in 2000) by French writer Paul Valéry and “님의 침묵 The Silence of Nim” (published in 1926) by Korean writer and activist Manhae (Han Yong-un). These associations coalesce in Rhee’s choreographic language for engaging the body with land and atmosphere.⁠ ⁠ *Prior to the performance, “Shadow of the Sea” begins with Coastal Walks at 5pm simultaneously on the east and west sides of Manhattan. To experience this migratory portion of the performance, RSVP to join at either the East River Promenade and East 10th (east side) or Pier 64 (west side) at 5pm.
