Performance
Sat, Apr 23, 2022 from 4:00 – 5:00pm UTC
Terrarium Exhibition in-person performance art event by Susan Luss and Theo Trotter.
Susan Luss’s Things I Leave Behind and Theo Trotter’s Exuvia deal with the pain and beauty of change. Both artists create works that exist as vulnerable bodies in flux. Luss’s canvas and Trotter’s lace installations represent what remains after a difficult period of growth, a process that can both heal and threaten the body. Luss’s work was created in preparation to leave the studio for a major surgery, while Trotter’s references his experience with medical transition.
Convective Currents are defined as “a process that involves the movement of energy from one place to another." Intervening simultaneously in each other's installations, Luss and Trotter represent the cycles of growth and transformation, and the precarious emergence of new forms. Involving their own bodies in the process, the human body as well as the permeable skins and bodies of the works themselves enter a new cycle of life.
