Live Stage: Our Lady of Detritus [
NYC]
Kristin Norderva in her latest collaboration with Jill Sigman, Our Lady of Detritus - an interactive mobile performance installation about trash and transcendence :: Sunday, September 20: 2-4PM :: Queens Botanical Garden (Queens), 4350 Main St. (inside the Garden, near Main St. entrance).
Our Lady of Detritus is a portable performance installation that will travel to parks and outdoor spaces in multiple NYC boroughs this Fall. A funky “food for thought” cart made of an orange cargo tricycle, Our Lady of Detritus is about trash and transcendence - raising awareness about waste management and recycling, while looking at our personal relations to re-invention, garbage, and throwing things away. Think of an old-fashioned hot dog cart for experimental art… Our Lady will be performed by choreographer/visual designer Jill Sigman, composer/vocalist Kristin Norderval, and our new theater intern from Portugal, Mariana Ferreira. Norderval composed the score and made the mobile solar powered sound system.
You can also see/hear it Saturday & Sunday, September 26 & 27: 2-4PM :: Van Cortlandt Park (The Bronx), near Sachkerah Woods Playground (enter at Jerome Ave. & West Gun Hill Rd.) Take the (4) train to Woodlawn. Subway stop is adjacent to the Park. Enter park at Jerome Ave. and West Gun Hill Rd.
