Project description
Ephemera is a multimedia performance project expounding on the body as a living-archive using choreography, sound-design, and technology expounding on the African American folklore built from stargazing into the night sky to find “the North Star” during the escape from enslavement on the Underground Railroad. Ephemera considers how this celestial wayfinding knowledge - navigating by observing the stars and other night sky patterns - is passed as a reminder of unity and perseverance from generation to generation.
