ARTS 26
Multifaceted Performance Winter 2025

For this course, we will consider how performance intersects with drawing, sculpture, and video. The course is open to all majors and encourages cross-disciplinary inquiry, research methods, and fun. Each week will focus on different media and build upon the previous meeting. We will begin with drawing by creating large-scale drawing tools. This will expand to movement, as we play with lighting strategies to explore shapes formed by the body through light and shadow. The following week, students will bring an object of significance to activate through performance exercises, documented with their phones and equipment accessible through the library. The final week will explore video within live performance and ways to merge students’ drawing, sculpture, and video experiments. The course will end with a presentation of performances, videos, or an exhibition.
