EXPORT: SAN
FERNANDO VALLEY | BEIJING
is a video projection and live music performance that
obliquely confronts spectacle and aesthetic stereotype to explore the soft
power of cultural export by opposing geographic locations. The piece combines
the kinetics of pole dancers, the reticulation of drawing, and the elegiac
eye of documented locality, while challenging the extinction of exoticism.
A custom made acoustic instrument will be played live during the video presentation.
"Export"
