Continuing our collaboration with SAAG<\/a>‘s Bletcher Reading Hour, the latest ASTeRIX Gathering+ event\u00a0 brings together scholar-artists focused on nascent concepts and works in progress. Mia van Leeuwen invites D. Andrew Stewart, Annie Martin, Julia Wasilewski and Ekida Laurie into a performance-research process that explores the \u2018life and death\u2019 of objects through sound, movement, ritual, costume and photography.<\/p>\n

This event builds on the readings and discussion from our last Gathering+ event in October<\/a>, but no previous knowledge or preparation is required to attend – all are welcome! However, you may contact asterix@uleth.ca for copies of the previous readings if you are interested.

7:15-8:00pm:<\/b> Open discussion and conversation<\/span><\/p>\n

ASTeRIX Gathering+ events are an informal and conversational opportunity to talk about research creation, encouraging interaction among colleagues from different fields and disciplines, and to discuss nascent concepts and works-in-progress in a more casual off-campus atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Performer bios:<\/p>\n

Ekida Laurie<\/b> studied dance at Kyung Hee University in Korea and then went to the Netherlands to dance with the NDT 1 company. She has performed and presented her choreographic work on various stages around the world, including Korea, Japan, Belgium, England, Canada and the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n

Annie Martin’s<\/b> practice moves between audio installation, drawing, painting, textile, performance and video. Her work has been exhibited widely in Canada, and also internationally.<\/span><\/p>\n

D. Andrew Stewart<\/b> is a composer, pianist and digital musical instrumentalist. A convergence of acoustic and electroacoustic instrumental praxis is at the centre of Stewart’s oeuvre. His music is dedicated to exploring composition and performance for new interfaces for musical expression by adapting and evolving traditional praxis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mia van Leeuwen<\/b> practices the body of performance to explore wide-ranging themes, playfully blurring the lines between theatre and visual art.\u00a0Altering perspective, baring process, queering, unsettling, combining different forms, making strange, fragmenting time, and juxtaposing imagery, are actions that inform the making of her various projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Julia Wasilewski<\/strong> is an Assistant Professor at the University of Lethbridge as well as a Lethbridge-based costume, set, and lighting designer. Julia’s practice embraces the intersection between traditional design conventions and contemporary renewable approaches in an effort to embrace sustainable theatre-making.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
