ISABEL LEWIS

Urban Flourishing

©

© Magali Le Mens

This live artwork by Isabel Lewis is a guided experience for collective listening in an expanded, fully sensorial way. As an embodiment experiment it encourages the listener to connect with their inner worlds in order to become more radically receptive to their outer worlds – to sounds, voices, music and the vibrations of urban material: urban life and nonlife. Lewis incorporates influences from dance, performance, and active listening practices in a hybrid practice of attunement for the body that suggests alternative modes of engagement with our built environment than those otherwise proposed to us in today’s highly regulated and standardized forms of urban existence.

Lewis focuses her performance and verbal address around academic Carolyn Dinshaw’s notion of “queerness of time” from her book Medieval Texts, Amateur Readers, and the Queerness of Time and feminist sociologist Roslyn Bologh’s notion of “erotic sociability”. Lewis like Dinshaw is interested in “forms of desirous, embodied being that are out of sync with the ordinarily linear measurements of everyday life, that engage heterogeneous temporalities or that precipitate out of time altogether.”
