Physicality of Change
‘Everything is Always Changing all of the Time’ is a unique collaborative performance work that brings together jewellery, music and carpet design. The piece will take place as part of the NYC x Design Festival.
The performance comprises of four participants who will move to a series of string musical compositions digitally manipulated live by artist/musician Alexis Georgopoulos, known as ARP.
The participants will be adorned with jewellery containing raw paint pigment that is released by the wearer’s movements, and a companion garment that acts as a canvas. The pigment will not only mark the garments, but also fall to the ground, seeping into carpets and exploring the notion of change.
The collaborative project brings together the Minneapolis-based design studio ROLU, ARP and Various Projects, who designed the carpets.
‘Everything is Always Changing all of the Time’ takes place at the Museum of Arts and Design, New York on Sunday 19 May 2013 for more information visit: www.madmuseum.org
The NYC x Design Festival runs until Tuesday 21 May 2013.
