Cheryl L'Hirondelle performance: CHANGE OF VENUE

C H A N G E    O F    V E N U E
Cheryl L’Hirondelle
êkâya-pâhkaci (don’t freeze up)
Date and Times: Saturday, September 13, from 12:00 noon – 5:00 pm (performance installation in process), and live performance from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
NEW VENUE: Winnipeg Film Group Studio (Artspace Building, 304 - 100 Arthur Street, 3rd Floor)

Cheryl L’Hirondelle’s work, êkâya-pâhkaci [ee-guy-uh-puck-a-chee] (don’t freeze up), operates through an intersection of nomadic site-specificity, visual patterning, language, narrative, movement and rhythm. With êkâya-pâhkaci (don’t freeze up), Cheryl will stage a performance presented under an adaptable traveling tent where she will be relating useful information to passersby using her body, voice and graffiti/tagging. The audience, by proximity and in accepting her invitation to ‘come in from the cold’ becomes part of her ‘camp’. The public is welcome to visit the installation/tent and have tea and bannock during the afternoon, and Cheryl will present a live performance within the tent in the evening, starting at 7:00 pm.

(in) visible cities extends many thanks to the Winnipeg Film Group for their generous support of the festival.
