ONE HOME ONLY [ITERATIONS] is a three part, on-site performative piece that unfolds overtime and presents a variation of ideas about home through text, images, spoken word, music and dance. The exteriors of a public building become a canvas and stage to host the evolving visual installations and pop-up performances.
Part one: spoken word performed by an author reading her own work in response to the theme of home, it’s tensions and contradictions.
Part two: a cellist weaves together different ideas and representations of "home" with improvised musical sections that introduce fragmentation, disruption, and silence.
Part three: two dance performers activate an imaginary, fragmented, visual domestic scene and explore the boundaries of actual space, relationships and emotions within it, around it and beyond.
Wall murals, cello, readings, dance performance.
