The 2023 Main Gallery season includes expanding A2AC’s vision for the Arts. In April, IS/LAND performance collective brings their innovative approach to storytelling into the A2AC Main Gallery. Through a series of movement and sound-based performances as well as paper crane workshops in collaboration with Tsuru for Solidarity, IS/LAND seeks to honor the sacred role of paper in Asian cultural traditions.
IS/LAND invite the audience to witness a transformation and transcendence ceremony. Forming rolls of colorful Hanji mulberry paper into shapes and pathways of wisdom, knowledge, and healing, the movement of the dancers offers improvised ‘rituals’ as communal gestures of healing and transmutation, ultimately creating a restorative healing space for both the audience and performers.
IS/LAND is an interdisciplinary Performance Collaborative composed of AAPIA artists and collaborators. Our performances center movement, storytelling, and aesthetics as processes to explore the extensive and diverse landscape of AAPIA lived experience, including an increased focus on optimizing audience engagement through reflection and dialogue.
