ESSAY//THE DEMATERIALIZATION OF THE ART OBJECT

Image of Adrian Piper performing as Mythic Being, Image sourced from WordPress

    I am examining the dematerialization of the art object in relation to the work of Adrian Piper and Lygia Clark. I am situating their respective relationship to the art object in relation to minimalist art in the case of Piper, and neoconcretism in the case of Clark. I am then…

ESSAY//AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT

Image by Kat Brown

In Process with Authentic Movement



It’s important to let the space remain wordless, at least the center space. The context comes about through reflections, and around the edges. It’s the wordless space of listening. Sound creates context for my movement. When I move to poetry or to my own words I can give my internal experience a…

LEIMAYblog // Frantic Beauty by LEIMAY Ensemble Member Mario Galeano

i am standing on black volcanic sand at an isolated beach. ancient siliceous rocks talk to my cracked heels, whispering stories of leviathans. the sun makes my skin sweat, but the warm breeze quickly evaporates it, leaving me covered with only saltiness. my eyes open and in front of me stands a giant wave. i realize that i am dreaming a recurring dream. i try to move, but I'm paralyzed with fear; no escape. the body of water is approaching fast towards me though its roar reaches…

LEIMAYblog // Frantic Beauty by LEIMAY Ensemble Member Omer Ephron

Observing a mystic path,

Hypnotized by the imperfectly perfect and 

Surrounded by an infinite temptation of the forbidden curiosity

leads to the reflections of passion and darkness floating mutually holding their secrets.

Some may suggest those are the secrets of death,

however  life secrets have been kept there as well.

Life as we know it would cease to…

Mary Christmas! (a Christmas letter to Mary Overlie. Dec 2016)

Dear Mary after our conversation I feel the desire to respond to you with what I have, a disorganized or perhaps perfect collage of…

PERCEPTIONS // POETRY // ON THE EVERYDAY #1

ORD->LGA

This morning at 8, I wasn't afraid of heights
Took off into the most brilliant colorlessness 
White wing of white plane
Ice frozen to little window
Water rolling over ice
Snow sideways falling behind
Clouds crowd up to take first rays of bright, light winter sideways…

Essay// Interdisciplinary within Meredith Monk's earlier works (part 3/1)

The uniqueness of Interdisciplinary depicted in Meredith Monk’s earlier works could be viewed from three different perspectives. First, from Monk’s growth based on various artistic performances and through the composition of her ensemble group, The House. Second, ‘Mixed Genre of Triangle Theatre’ from various arts and media. Lastly, the reconstruction of performance spaces.





Meredith Monk’s Growth and Composition of The House

ESSAY // Measuring the Value of Our Work

I randomly stepped into an audition in July of 2016, expecting nothing, with a company that I had no prior relationship with, and two months later found myself getting emailed a contract for second cast of a brand new, ongoing, immersive theater show. I’d be performing multiple times a week. I’d be getting…

LEIMAYblog // Frantic Beauty/ Beat Your Heart Out by LEIMAY Ensemble Member Derek DiMartini

Frantic Beauty

You feel it in the fingertips of the heart. Blind. Reaching out through the central nervous system. Carving into you like clay, working through you like putty.  For a moment it rests behind the eyes, and you stop, paralyzed. Because before you know what it is, you see it in its entirety. And its too much.  The world is too rigid and time is too steady and it will never fit, there's no place. Its hopeless and you haven't even begun. Oceans of peach pits…

Frantic Beauty first notes

I remember...Sirens. Dogs running into shelter. Fire in wind. My dad driving. Facebook. Waking up in an hospital connected to machines. Lies. Slaughterhouse. Secrets. Mania.



What is beautiful about frantic energy?(or: what is frantic beauty?) Adrenaline. Thrill. Danger. madness. blunt, raw, truth. Stream of unfiltered thought. the soundtrack of a human brain. Wild untouched nature. Deep crack in the earth. Storm in the middle of the ocean. Rapid heartbeat. New born baby… Continue

LEIMAYblog // Thoughts on Frantic Beauty by LEIMAY Ensemble Member Krystel Copper

Hummingbirds, colorful, in serene nature, 
depicted as peaceful...
hearts racing...internal buzz...
chaos in a pretty shell...
yet heart beat itself is a structure...
structure containing chaos containing structure, and so on forever. 
Structure allowing freedom and risk and danger...
the tension of freedom living within structures. 
the tension of freedom within living…
