Recall / Kluteny / A Carnival of Voices - Jan 24 - RHINOFEST 2011

RECALL: AN AROMATIC INTERACTIVE PERFORMANCE by Jessica Hannah
Recall is an interactive performance with aroma. Take a trip down memory lane as one women dives into the past through scent. What does a woman choose to remember and forget? Audiences will smell along the way in this funny, poignant poke at the nose.

KLUTENY by Cristal Sabbagh
Kluteny is an interdisciplinary movement performance inspired by the volatility of toddler emotions. The movement used is influenced by childhood songs, sign language, tantrums, and Butoh. Kluteny incorporates altered choreography in response to improvised sound and voice.

A CARNIVAL OF VOICES by Shalaka Kulkarni
A Carnival of Voices is a performance driven by hybridity that explores identity, culture and displacement. Indian Classical dance forms merge with Modern and vernacular gestures for generating movement. This work examines the challenges that post-colonized descendants living in a non-native and a so-called normative dominant culture face with selective editing processes that generalize and misrepresent an entire community. Through movement, text, and media, this multi-layered work comments on the relationship between the performer and the viewer and emergence of a hybrid identity with no distinct boundaries.
