Event Description
This fascinating series features the work of preeminent performance artists who will expand the traditional definition of art using sound, video, and the human body. Co-sponsored by the University of Northern Iowa Department of Art. Free admission
Heidi Wiren Bartlett will perform a durational ritual – a meditation on labor, deep time, and the portrayal, oppression, and subversive existence of women in America today. As a white woman raised by a lesbian in Nebraska, she feels obligated to confront racial and misogynistic injustice and to question her efforts from it into the prairie. She sees her body as an object of power and vulnerability; she sees Nature the same way.
