The Weight of Air

"The Weight of Air On A Body" is a contemporary puppet performance project illustrating the effects that invisible policies and practices like redlining and disinvestment in Detroit neighborhoods have had on physical space – for residents, for civil servants and on the city’s topography itself. Developed in collaboration with local and national puppet performers, we will be bringing in several artists over the next 18 months to facilitate workshops and artists talks as part of this new project, with a tentative production schedule of spring 2020 for a showing of part 1, fall 2020 for showings of part 2 and spring 2021 for part 3.  The Weight of Air project is made possible with support from The Map Fund, Creative Many and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
