Info: J. Morrison proposes an escape from city life, and asks the question is "New York a prison?" Desiring to create a retreat from the norm, the artist invites your presence to accompany him on a new exploration. Continuing thematically with his recent performances of "Escape From New York" and "Escape From Houston", the piece pays homage to the likes of Sleep No More, David Lynch's the Black Lodge, and John Carpenter's film of the same name. Theatrical, provocative, and mysterious, the artist creates a new interactive, site-specific storyline for his journey into a new dimension.
Bio: J. Morrison is a multidisciplinary Brooklyn-based artist. He favors using the art of the ephemeral, multiples, and take-one pieces. His practice is often about the experience of the work. For the past few years, the artist's annual performances have been noted for their spirit of playfulness, generosity, and mystique. Using intimacy and humor, he plays with issues of identity in an open-ended manner, often inviting the audience to observe or participate. Since 2009, his independent performance project "SPACE IS THE PLACE" has presented over 32 shows. His work is exhibited widely in NY and internationally.
