Minor Matter (work-in-progress) showing at White Flag Projects

In conjunction with FD13 residency for the arts, Ligia Lewis shared an excerpt of the research for Minor Matter as a solo with dancer Jonathan Gonzalez at White Flag Projects in Saint Louis, MO.

Minor Matter will be performed by three dancers when it premiers later this year at Hebbel am Ufer, Berlin.
Grounded in an ongoing investment in affect and embodiment, Minor Matter takes the “minor” position to be understood racially, sonically, and thematically as it’s translated into aesthetic experience. In the score dancers negotiate themselves in relation to sight and phonic play, while exploring the limitations of signification and the fallacy of neutrality.
