Judy Dunaway- Chamber Ensemble at HarvestWorks
By HarvestWorks
“Chamber Ensemble” is a participatory sculptural sonic environment utilizing round ready-made latex balloons of various sizes. A giant balloon guides visitors to make sounds with typical toy balloons, to which it responds and reacts. Occasional interlopers send a helium balloon up a deadly tunnel that transforms into an immersive experience. All the while, a large illuminated translucent balloon provides abstract 3-dimensional commentary on the sounds and activities.

Sundays on Broadway @ WeisAcres: Inhibited Bites by Neil Goldberg
By Cathy Weis Projects
Inhibited Bites is a solo performance about the strangeness of being alive in a body, especially our need to eat. Artist and performer Neil Goldberg uses his visual art — such as the photo series The Gay Couples of Whole Foods or the Audubon-style drawings Wild Animals Eat My Family and Me — as backdrops for personal narratives, cultural reflections, and scientific speculations that examine our complicated relationships to being flesh and blood. Whether discussing the connections between internalized homophobia and aggressive hygiene or our shifting identification with predator and prey animals, Goldberg reveals the absurdity, mystery, sublimity, and horror underlying everyday bodily experience.
