Internationally renowned choreographer, Pat Graney, makes a grand return to Houston as she takes over DiverseWorks' entire building with her latest exhibition and performance House of Mind. In an amalgamation of female memory, collective unconscious, and family and cultural histories, Graney creates an expansive kinesthetic sense of her work. A work that takes the audience on an intense and thought-provoking journey through her past, her mother's battles with Alzheimer's and the quirky imagination that Houstonians saw in The Vivian Girls (2005) and Sleep (1998). The public is invited to tour the installation, a multi-sensory experience that physically manifests aspects her mind, and then experience a choreographed performance, in which each viewer’s experience will be as unique as memory itself. |
