Apr 18, 2019
Field:

Performance, Reading

Location:

Grand Luxe Hall, Western Front

Time:

7:00 p.m.

Description:

Presented as part of Scrivener’s Monthly, Félicia Atkinson shared work from her publications Ambient Park (2017), Audio Book (2017), Animals (2016), and Improvising Sculpture as Delayed Fictions (2014), to an electronic soundscape. 

Scrivener’s Monthly was a series of public presentations that explored the space between material practices and spoken words. Set alongside exhibitions at Western Front, this experiment in “not publishing” involved readings, performances, and other articulations.

Presented in partnership with Deep Blue.
