Inevitable Circling: the work of dreams
8 out of 8 Artist Collective
8 out of 8 Artist Collective is comprised of the second-year MFA cohort from OSU’s Department of Dance. The collective works together in creative process centered around values of collaborative community and interdependence. Inevitable Circling: the work of dreams, to be presented at Urban Arts Space on November 12th, will be one iteration of this ongoing collaborative process. Performances will take place at 6pm and 8pm; registration is required.
Inevitable Circling: the work of dreams is a cycle, a recurrence, a spiraling return to origin and imagination. The collaborators come from a variety of nationalities, community origins, and cultural identities, to weave together their own imagined stories of the cosmos and creation. Through the performance, they acknowledge the cyclical nature of living, dying, and transforming; telling and retelling one story from eight perspectives.
The audience is invited to participate in the creative process as it unfolds in space. Traversing through the Urban Arts Space galleries, the audience participants will witness the recurring events from multiple perspectives, physical positions, and conceptual frameworks.
