Description of Work:
K I N G D O M and garment
material world .... Sidra Bell’s latest evening length events attempt to rescue the individual by constructing two new worlds that navigate popular zeitgeists. Conceived through materials, K I N G D O M (World Premiere Tanz Farm, Atlanta) and garment (World Premiere Kelly Strayhorn Theater, Pittsburgh) use small performance ceremonies to observe antiquation, literacy, transfiguration, and reformation.
