About this Event
Contours is created by Johnny Lee Chapman III and Marco Andro Carter, artists in residence at the Birdland Gallery of the Visual Art Exchange Museum. Over 6 weeks, we have developed a multidisciplinary performance art piece, the culmination of which will be performed at this show.
The Contours journey is both an experimental exploration and a love letter to artistry. This piece, conveyed in four acts, tells the story of two companions moving through the transactional mundanity of capitalist labor systems by activating rigor, reconnection, and rest. Using dance, music, spoken word, vocals, and muraling, we transform a bare canvas into a kinesthetic experience that explores the impact of artistic lineage, liberating movement, and the capacity of voice for initiation, reflection, and transition.
