This winter I spent some time taking refuge in the homes of collaborators outside Chicago.
They worked, I worked, it snowed, we researched, we laughed, we made.

Stephanie
VestAndPage have been working together to create performance art, films, visual art, and creative writing since 2006. they are the curatorial force behind the acclaimed VENICE INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE ART WEEK. their live performances have been presented across EUROPE, ASIA and the AMERICAS. Mostly process-led and conceived psycho-geographically for architecture or in response to natural and historical sites, VestAndPage are interested in the fragility of the individual and its surroundings. They research private, social and contextual spheres through precariousness, transformation, liminality and authenticity.
THOU TWIN OF SLUMBER: HISTO investigates stasis and sleep as liminal spaces. Inspired by twin figures from GREEK mythology, HYPNOS (SLEEP) and THANATOS (DEATH), the artists embrace the MOTH as an archetypical symbol of life and transformation as they rigorously navigate a fragile terrain.
The evening will also includes work by artists:
STEPHANIE ACOSTA, CHUI FAN, JUSTUS HARRIS, AUTUMN HAYS, RYAN NOBLE, MICHAL SAMAMA, SANAZ SOHRABI, ALEX PAUL YOUNG.
