This in-process interdisciplinary project explores the physical and emotional manifestation of loss through text, video, and music. Site: Yizkor is an autonomous multi-channel video/sound installation, an evening-length musical performance with a Vancouver string quartet in an immersive projected environment, exhibit of historic Yizkor books, and workshops where participants are invited to create their own Yizkor pages as away to mourn and commemorate lost people and places.
Co-presented with the Sidney & Gertrude Zack Gallery and in partnership with the Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre.
Site: Yizkor is presented with the generous support of the Jewish Community Foundation.
The audience is invited following the performance to the Sidney & Gertrude Zack Gallery for a facilitated Talkback and casual reception with the artists.
