DOSSIER X

Location: OPUS, Le Guess Who, ongoing

Dates: 2018 - ongoing

Role: Curator + Producer

DOSSIER X is an immersive audio-visual collaboration between the composer Patrick Higgins, installation artist Matthew Schreiber, & choreographer Monica Mirabile featuring dancers Jes Nelson, Aarron Ricks, Tara-Jo Tashna + Monica Mirabile.

The installation is a monumental, site-specific laser sculpture made of forty intersecting lasers spanning seventy-five feet in an atmospheric haze. As the audience and dancers move below the cathedral-like geometry, the precise lines and angles seem to soften and evolve into curves reaching toward the sky. The piece engages with the alienation and inner emotional economy of contemporary digital life, its politics, erotics, systems, and violence.

The project was also made into a short film directed by Miles Joris-Peyrafitte.
