A series of performances and workshops centered around cultural connection and healing in the Asian American diaspora

LIVE PERFORMANCE
BY KAT GOROSPE COLE

A multimedia experimental performance centered around mental health and ancestral connection. Exploring within what seedkeeper Rowen White calls the “diaspora of disconnect,” Cole looks for the threads to her maternal history back to the Ilocos region of the Philippines. What has been inherited? What has been lost? What can be refound? QUAKE weaves together sound, imagery and vibrations to physicalize ideas of grief, longing and closeness.
