Inspired by the art and life of Sarain Stump, TRACES is a performance work co-created by Edward Poitras and Robin Poitras. Performed by dance artists James Viveiros and Marcus Merasty, TRACES features solo piano work There Is My People Sleeping, composed by Alfred Fisher and performed by Gordon Gerrard and an original live modular synthesizer sound score composed and performed by Gary James Joynes with excerpt ambient / recorded sounds by Charlie Fox.
TRACES follows two earlier works created in Spring 2018, the first through invitation by the Regina Symphony Orchestra for their inaugural Forward Currents Festival. Both were created in residency at the MacKenzie Art Gallery in conjunction with the Exhibition Mixing Stars and Sand: The Art and Legacy of Sarain Stump, co-curated by Anthony Kiendl and Gerald McMaster, now on view at the Kenderdine Art Gallery, University of Saskatchewan. We are excited to continue to develop this work in the unique space of Convocation Hall with light design by Kennedy Sembaliuk. |
