LOCATION /// Abandoned store front on West Colfax
ABOUT THE CASCADA BONITA /// For this event, the collective riffed-off of the actual waterfall in the nearby kitsch-powerhouse that is Casa Bonita. Within this vacant storefront exhibition space, the collective created a poetic, human-powered waterfall with simple materials and actions. Throughout the 3 hour opening, there was live sound mixing of water-oriented audio and collaged video footage taken from Casa Bonita that covered the floor and ceiling of the cavernous space. While the video and sound added sensorial depth to the space, there was also action and inaction abound while members of the collective slowly and continuously poured water from a series of buckets into and out of a small pool that shimmered beneath two spotlights while a potential swimmer/diver perched in stillness on a ladder above.
FEATURING /// Alex Killgore / Marianna Crespin / Des Merworth / Isabella Desantiago / Kaitlyn Wong / Jeff Page / Tobias Fike / Mario Zoots
