October 17th

Festival Artist Roster
October 17th

Thomas Quirk- Directs the action and curates the artists. Intersects include the interface of audience and performer.


Adam Gruba- Gritty and organic, nudity, fire, smoke, metalics, crushed underfoot in an impromptu sculpture and lined between trees blowing in the wind, his signature is immersive environmental intersection, conception, and revelry.

Agnes Nedregard- She assembles found objects with a sense of dilapidated off-kilter absurdity. We are placed in an unknown world part playground part social commentary.

Alyssa Lee Wilmot, Group A- If Andy Warhol and Molissa Fennly got together a performance art group this would be an approximation but with a mellow Cali. Vibe. Very curious about the “Remote Performance” Hold on to your pants this group can dance, not your typical performance slock.

Andi & Sun- Duo performers leave language and gesture subverted, deconstructed, opaque and encoded.

BBB Johannes Deimling- The living word a nightmare and a decoded message are the afterimages burnt on the retina of BBB.

Beatriz Albuquerque- Abramovic’s protégé or her little Latin worker, you decide. I say a female powerhouse on the rise, unshrouded, lady dipped in red.

Clare Dyson- We are in art school again, supper saturated in obscure imagery and street life captured in an instant. Raw, real, and steady with a beat undercurrent. Clare goes to Paris the city of lights and love and seems not to surrender.

Francis O’ Shaughnessy- Mad hatters, out of a puritan regime. An artist turns to performance to contemplate the games we human’s play.

Frans van Lent- His work is collectable and conservationist to some degree, recording the passing of time and alterations in the location of the body and the senses.
