Mobile Projection Unit: Featuring Fernanda D’Agostino & Sarah Turner
Mobile Projection Unit’s Letters to Earth, a new mapped-projection work surrounding visitors to Venice VR Expanded 2021 in the Portland Art Museum’s Fields Ballroom, poses the question, “What devotions does the Earth ask of us as its most powerful inhabitants?” Drawing upon their personal travels and archives, as well as contributions from colleagues around the world, artists Fernanda D’Agostino and Sarah Turner’s new work takes on the task of “re-enchanting” the world we too often take for granted. Performers from around the world acting as “correspondents” responded to a prompt asking them to make an embodied offering for the earth through gesture, movement, and ritual. With performances by Sarah Turner, Devin Febbroriello, & Brianna Sas.
