Uncovering<\/span><\/i> is a two-part performance-installation that explores human fear and ambition, how it affects our humanity, defines personality, and constructs society.<\/span><\/p>\n During the first six days of the exhibition, Garnica and Moriya collaborated with Tijuana-born, New York-based draftsman and artist Hugo Crosthwaite and a group of international New York-based performers to create a durational dance-drawing-installation reflecting upon society’s hierarchical views of success dominated by fear of failure. \u00a0Through a series of performances, the residue of sweat and movement from the performers uncovers a large-scale mural engraving. \u00a0The performance uncovers a process of confrontation of values, self-discovery and confronts the viewer with the ephemeral nature of life.<\/p>\n Throughout the final week of the show the space was once again transformed by a daily five-hour performance by Ximena Garnica. \u00a0The performer battles between the creation of protective mechanisms and the surrendering of them. \u00a0The body is then exposed and vulnerable. \u00a0It emerges present in the space as it sheds away its fears.<\/span><\/p>\n Over two weeks, <\/span>Uncovering<\/span><\/i> progressed from the collective confrontation of a frantic society to the reconciliation of personal fear as an act of revitalization of humanity.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Links” tab_font=”||||” tab_line_height=”2em” tab_line_height_tablet=”2em” tab_line_height_phone=”2em” body_font=”||||” body_line_height=”2em” body_line_height_tablet=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”2em” tab_font_select=”default” body_font_select=”default”]<\/p>\n Uncovering Part 2<\/span><\/i> [Link to webpage with info about part 2]<\/span> [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Credits” tab_font=”||||” tab_line_height=”2em” tab_line_height_tablet=”2em” tab_line_height_phone=”2em” body_font=”||||” body_line_height=”2em” body_line_height_tablet=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”2em” tab_font_select=”default” body_font_select=”default”]<\/p>\n IMAGE CREDIT: <\/b>Photo Documentation: Shige Moriya and Hugo Crosthwaite<\/span><\/p>\n CREATION CREDITS:<\/b><\/p>\n Direction, Choreography and Installation: Ximena Garnica and Shige Moriya<\/span> [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Video” tab_font=”||||” tab_line_height=”2em” tab_line_height_tablet=”2em” tab_line_height_phone=”2em” body_font=”||||” body_line_height=”2em” body_line_height_tablet=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”2em” tab_font_select=”default” body_font_select=”default”]<\/p>\n
