Multiple Bessie Award-winning artist Yvonne Meier brings her latest work to the festival. Subtlety, and in persuasion of Meier’s own rhythm, the work will be interrupted by bold explosions. Flow will get interrupted by the playful fulfillment of some COVID created movement Phantasiewelt. Music by Zeena Parkins and Ikue Mori
“The festival was such a wonderfully supportive community of artists to perform amongst and a generous audience as well. The performances were inspiring and exceptionally well-run, which I appreciated.”
