Meet Me Upstairs
Performers: Heyree Ro, Oscar Chavaz and Claire Ritchie
April 6– April 7, 2023
Simone Subal Gallery
Headlamps – red, yellow, and blue – make visible the way our
thoughts overlap. Then we peel, rip, and recalibrate to adjust the grid.
With each breath, our collective stomachs will rise and fall, untying
knots of anxiety and leaving space for new memories.
Performed in the round, Meet Me Upstairs is a “sonic psychodrama” that attempted to transform the
gallery into a location where lofty, incoherent thoughts can be
distilled into a logical structure. Harp improvisations as well as original music
co-written with harpist Claire Ritchie.
