Site: Yizkor
In their collaboration, Site: Yizkor, Jewish Canadian multimedia artist Maya Ciarrocchi and composer Andrew Conklin explore questions like: Who honours the spaces left by the dead? How and why do people, cultures, and identities disappear? This in-process interdisciplinary project explores the physical and emotional manifestation of loss through text, video, and an evening-length musical performance with a Vancouver string quartet in an immersive projected environment.
The audience is invited following the performances to the Sidney & Gertrude Zack Gallery for a facilitated talkback and casual reception with the artists.
Co-presented by the Chutzpah! Festival and the Sidney & Gertrude Zack Gallery in partnership with the Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre. For more information visit https://www.vhec.org/upcomingevents
