Description
Shamanism is a belief system wherein a person (shaman) acts as an intermediary between humans and spirits. Inspired by the exhibition, "Phantoms of Asia: Contemporary Awakens the Past" at the Asian Art Museum (2012), this performance looks at how the living interact with the spirit world. Our special guest is Dohee Lee, currently an artist in residence at the Headlands Center for the Arts, will reveal excerpts from her work-in-progress, Mago, which layers installation, music, dance, animation, and ritual with Korean traditional art forms and shamanism.
