DoublePlus presents three weeks of shared evenings for which established artist-curators each choose a pair of emerging artists and mentor them through the creative, production and audience development processes.
Wesley Chavis
Ku In Tuo Muah
For Ku In Tuo Muah, Wesley Chavis contemplates the expansion of bodily presence, and the peculiarities of communion with ethereal forces, by moving through the abstracted sound of his family’s breath: accessing a complex sense of love and surrender.
Cori Olinghouse
Grandma - joined by performer Martita Abril
Utilizing Clown Therapy, an original improvisational practice which explores the shape-shifting nature of identity and personhood to parody American consumption practices, Cori Olinghouse presents Grandma, a live televisual set in an American landscape of Twinkies and Wonder Bread, that stars Grandma and Bad Signal, her staticky ghost.
