Presented: August 3 + 4 2024 / 7:30pm Intrepid Studio (2-1609 Blanshard St) Victoria, BC |
|
How To Build a Fire is a performance accompanied by projections, sound and live-narration. Connections to nature, changing climates and wildfire are explored through the relationship between Kerri, the performer, and their father Mike, a fire scientist. This performance asks questions about what kind of relationships we should have with each other, with fire, and with the land around us.
Kerri Flannigan (she/they) is an interdisciplinary artist, performer, and educator currently based on Lkwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ Territories (Victoria, BC), who experiments with methods of research and storytelling through installation, video, and performance. With a background as an experimental animator and zine-maker, Flannigan is interested in investigating different ways of creating and performing narratives, working to create a framework through which the personal is critically connected to a wider sphere of context. This presentation takes place at the Intrepid Studio (1609 Blanshard), a 45 seat venue with wheelchair accessibility with two gender neutral washrooms. Non-alcoholic beverages and snacks will be available. |
