SOMA 2020 – CONTACT
February 28, 2020 @ 8:30 pm PST
$20.00 – $25.00Event Navigation

CONTACT is a performance about bodies coming together and becoming undone through sound, movement, touch, and play. Bodies encounter other bodies, whether human-animal or material, whether fabric or image or nature’s detritus. CONTACT occurs through the unexpected, which brings risk and joy while inviting stillness and presence and the unknown.
CONTACT is brought to you by SOMA 2020, aka Magdalena Edwards & Sohani Holland & special guests, including the live performance audiovisual alchemists Peter Johnson x Amy Zimmitti (Giedion | Kirscher, Coredark Laboratories), and multidisciplinary artist Amanda Maciel Antunes. CONTACT happens before the eyes of the audience and performers, a shared experience of consciousness through layers of containment, contrast, conflict, and connection.
