Can acts of creative collaboration help heal broken bonds with the environment and with each other? Artists Cannupa Hanska Luger and Marie Watt invite the public to consider such questions while contributing to the physical manifestation of a large-scale sculptural installation. Through national and international participation, the artwork will become a temporary monument to collective relationship and collaborative handwork, bringing audiences into a tactile encounter with critically relevant issues of protection, shelter, reciprocity, sustenance, exchange, power, action, stewardship, wildness, kinship, vulnerability, and ferocity.

"I admire singers who can take risks and push themselves, even when they risk cracking, or looking dumb, or looking ugly. I really wanted to get out of this looking feminine and sexy and pretty and embodying traditional female roles." - Sharon Chohi Kim Watch the full video to learn more about one of our newest Company members, Sharon Chohi Kim (@sharonchohikim ) and tune in TOMORROW (Aug 5) for her takeover of The Industry’s Instagram!

"I'm interested in how writing libretti forces me to not account for every aspect of the writing. And leaving those things vacant is exciting when you have collaborators that you trust." - Douglas Kearney Watch the full video to get to know Douglas Kearney, the librettist behind half of Sweet Land and all of Crescent City and one of our newest Company members!
