Description
We are thrilled to present a new project commissioned by Art Spin and created in collaboration with RISE Edutainment called The Balcony Project. This piece, an immersive and site-specific musical performance, has artists performing an original work they’ve written collaboratively from a series of apartment balconies to an audience gathered below in a courtyard. Conceived of before the pandemic, The Balcony Project is a timely exploration around ideas of community, isolation vs togetherness, love, freedom, gentrification, and densification. While artists may be separated across space, they interflow through sound and rhythm.
