Colliding Dreams: A Performance by AYDO

Published: March 23, 2023; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

When: April 1, 2023
Where: Recess

Address: 46 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205, United States

A performance by artist duo AYDO — Immerse yourself in an intimate performance centered on reimagined adaptations of Ayoung and Nicholas’ dreams, featuring contemporary dance and ritual-based movements. The site-specific installation reimagines precolonial pagoda spaces that feature a series of personal ceremonial garments previously worn during ancestral rituals performed at the Korean Demilitarized Zone, 3D printed life-size replicas of the artists’ bodies in varying stages of decay and regeneration, and ceramic ritual-ware. The performance will unfold as a multi-sensorial immersive theater experience, doing away with traditional seating and stage areas and allowing guests to freely move around the space.

Colliding Dreams is part of Recess’s program, Session, which invites artists to use Recess’s public platform to combine productive studio space with dynamic exhibition opportunities. Sessions remain open to the public from the first day of the artist’s project through the last, encouraging sustained dialogue between artists and audiences. Due to the process-based nature of Sessions, projects undergo constant revision and the above proposal is subject to change
