Meditations, Volume 2: Things Remember

In Things Remember, the protagonist, performed by dance-artist Allison Blakley, speaks of the limitations of chronic illness and how this can serve as a type of alterity as the observant eye reads in between the lines of body language, sound, and material traces. She posits that place serves as a palimpsest, on which actions are recorded and recorded through the displacement of things, as well as material and audio traces. This honing-in on traces serves to frame them as modes of artistic/cultural production that can serve as alternatives or ancillary to a more straight-forward studio practice.
