August 8-20 || LIMITS: Corrie Beffort + Jason Anderson || Alembic Parent Residency

PWNW welcomes Corrie Befort and Jason E. Anderson of LIMITS for our inaugural Alembic Parent Residency. The duo draw upon their extensive involvement with improvisation, film, video art, installation and experimental performance to investigate psychological experiences of time, memory and perception. Corrie and Jason are using this residency opportunity to invite other artists to play/improvise with them within the context of LIMITS, proposing “container” scores for themselves toward revealing new ideas and perspectives on their preoccupations with character, narrative and information density.
Sept 30-Oct 2 || Linda Austin: 3 miles of possible (the first 2 miles)

PWNW Artistic Director Linda Austin presents Mile 2 of her ongoing project “3 miles of possible.” In a work whose length is measured by distance, Austin animates and travels along a series of spatial paths envisioned as giant drawings, spells,and/or runes. These paths are threaded through with a variety of movement scores, choreographies, tasks, interactions with objects, guest artists, texts, songs, and sound compositions.
