Resident Artist Open House: Jenna Eady
Seattle artist Jenna Eady will be in residency at Base for three weeks in January, in collaboration with her father, Palestinian playwright and director Hanna Eady. Join us on January 19 for an open house with Jenna and Hanna at Base!
Working in collaboration, the Eadys use text, movement and sound design to create environments for experiential story telling. As Palestinian artists they focus their content on personal experience while uplifting the voices of their community. In their newest project, FLOOD, they draw on parallels between modern day refugees and biblical stories.
About the Base Residency:
After three years of experimentation, our inaugural season marks a bold retooling of our signature Base Residency program, with changes aimed at expanding and deepening the positive impact of the program within the arts community. Selected from an open call, four Base Resident Artists will receive three-week, full-access residencies each yearrepresenting an increase in both the duration of the residency and number of residencies awarded each year.
The intent is the same: to provide artists with an experience of drastic freedom in an atmosphere free of external pressure. For three uninterrupted weeks, Base Resident Artists dive deep into their disciplines, using 24/7 access to Base for development, self-challenge and experimentation. Each Base Residency culminates in an open house that offers a public vantage point on a particular stage in the creative development of a project or specific aspects of an artists practice.
Base is thrilled to announce our 2019/2020 Base Resident Artists: Coley Mixan, Jenna Eady, Degenerate Art Ensemble and Same as Sister. Selected from a pool of more than 40 applicants from Seattle and beyond, these artists embody Base's mission to support risk and experimentation in distinct and unexpected ways.
Base is ADA accessible through the North entrance. Email schedule@thisisbase.org for information and questions about accessibility.
This event is support in part by 4Culture.
