Liminal Performance Space, 2020
Liminal Performance Space was an arena for remote performance creation and exhibition initiated during the Covid pandemic, using creative code. Live video feeds via Skype allowed collaborators prevented from meeting in person, to create new work together that pushed the boundaries of remote work spaces. In some cases, collaborators were separated by oceans and days of the week. The intention was to use the restrictions of quarantine to open up and explore new ways of working together that cross boundaries of time, space and cultures. As a result, Liminal Performance Space became a “house with many rooms,” a digital performance installation space that was at once a studio for making things, a theater of memories, an instrument that is played by movement performers, and a dream space that is nowhere and everywhere. The rooms were empty and black until they were occupied and set in motion by performers visiting it via Skype.
