The Cathedral of Emptiness
In this performance and video installation, hands and figures float eerily around the performer as she emerges from a rich landscape of delicate branches, transforming into another being to the sounds of koto, voice and echoing drums. Kathy Rose creates her own animated, film and video projections intricately integrating herself within them in live performance to create a fascinating poetic “alternate universe.” Rose earned a BFA in film from the Philadelphia College of Art, where she also studied and performed dance with Group Motion — a multimedia dance company comprised of former students of Mary Wigman in Berlin. The artist’s animated films have been exhibited widely and have won numerous awards. Her work with performance and film has been taped by Swiss, Austrian, German, Brazilian, and Japanese television, as well as the BBC.
