Interview with Made in LA artists Aria Dean, Harmony Holiday, and Jaqueline Kiyomi Gork
Adapting performance work for Covid-19 safety — How performance operates without an audience present — What roles writing, sampling, and archiving play in performance work — How that pandemic has shifted how we think about institutional support and artist communities
In this episode, I talk to three artists in The Hammer exhibition, Made in LA 2020: A Version. Harmony Holiday, Aria Dean, and Jaqueline Kiyomi Gork all had planned performance works for the biennial exhibition and had to shift their artworks to accommodate for covid-safety. We discuss how performance becomes altered without audience participation, how other disciplines like writing sculpture, and sound playout in each artist’s work, and the artists muse together on issues that the pandemic has brought to light. How might alternative platforms privilege community and care for artists and performers?
