A Map
A Sailor
A Siren
A Sea
Performance
2023
Commissioned by FADO for A Score of Scores, 10 artists were invited to perform their interpretation of a performance score written for them by a paired score writer.
For my performance, Francisco-Fernando Granados provided me a score via one of his “maps for a correspondence” (after Rosalind Krauss’ diagram for “Sculpture In the Expanded Field”)
I plotted the room with stations in correspondence with the concepts and coordinates on the map, devising characters and actions to traverse through the space culminating in a narrative.
The mapped concepts of:
CONSCIOUSNESS
DESIRE
ABSTRACTION
and
NARRATIVE
became:
The Sailor
The Siren
The Sea
and
The Journey
