For the 23th of May at Roulette, Angie Eng returns from Paris to premier two very distinct video performances. The first set will be ‘Formfields’, a multimedia performance based upon energy fields. The second set will be ‘Chasers’, her videobass band that resamples cult classic films into visual gestures.
‘Formfields’
is a multimedia performance directed by visual artist Angie Eng in collaboration with musician Cheryl Leonard and Sifu Tzyann Hsu and her practitioners from the Brooklyn Academy of Kung fu/Tai chi. Inspired by visualizing the invisible, Eng projects drawn line and word as digital qi-ripples onto a dozen martial arts performers while composer Leonard bows, drips and amplifies macro-sounds from nature’s basic elements: water, sand and wood.
