SUMMARY:Zania Cummings' “Black Bodies” Spoken Word Performance & Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a performance as part of the For The Public group exhibition at Local Project. Black Bodies is a Poetic dive into the Black experience\, and an exploration of our most vulnerable parts. The work includes portraits with written poems\, as well as a performance of “Slave Black” a spoken word piece. See full details about the For The Public exhibition.RSVP to this event. \n\n\n\nBiography \n\n\n\nWebsite \nBorn and raised in Charleston SC\, Zania Cummings is an Actor\, Poet and Creative based in NYC. She received her classical training at The American Academy of Dramatic Arts where she received the James Fisher award. After living in NYC she rediscovered her love of poetry and used spoken word as another medium of expression. She wrote and produced her first poetic short “Alchemy” in 2019 which has received praise and Best Poetic Film at the Detroit Black Film Festival. She prides herself on making art that is intentional and simply unapologetic! She is a proud believer in activism through art often reflecting on her own journey through black femininity as a catalyst of expression. My objective is to offer a level of vulnerability within each performance\, making the audience feel safe in the space. I want to bathe the audience in poetic realism\, with an emphasis on expressing that poetic realism on black bodies.

SUMMARY:Robert Wallace “The Next Event” Performance
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a performance as part of the For The Public group exhibition at Local Project. See full details about the For The Public exhibition. \nRSVP to this event. \n\n\n\nThe Next Event is about James Lee Mass\, a failed author living in Long Island\, New York during the year 1985. Mass lost his nine-year-old daughter\, Ava\, due to pneumonia. Unable to cope with this loss\, James’ personal and professional life deteriorates. He passively watches the dissolution of his marriage as he is incapable of picking up the pieces. With slowing book sales\, and the lack of will to create anything new\, he quickly finds himself spiraling into a deep depression with thoughts of suicide. James Lee Mass is a dark and deeply complex character\, and throughout the play he addresses the emotional battles that some people fight within themselves everyday. What makes this play so innovative is the breaking of the fourth wall in which the audience is asked to transition from a passive viewer to an active participant. The audience members play the role of the concerned neighbor and are taken through a journey addressing topics such as family\, religion\, politics\, love and death. I am a Brooklyn native\, who was classically trained in Theatre at North Carolina Central University; committed to developing an aesthetic\, as a writer\, that sits in a liminal space between Theatre and Film. I am not only a thespian\, but a playwright\, screenwriter\, director\, producer\, auteur\, and poet. I intend to redefine the way in which pain is consumed and understood. My approach is through a mode of writing that reconfigures rules that have historically repressed the artist; to challenge the conditions of the fourth wall through a radical re-imagining of monologues\, utilizing the platform of a one-man show. My writing practice is informed by performative disciplines; interrogating the conventions of theatre and film. Borrowing from the directional effects of storytelling and narration – live and on screen – I write fictional prose\, often taking the form of a One-man show\, a solo performance\, or a durational monologue. My approach to writing comes from a desire to stage and script the intimacies of life’s rituals\, often marrying the fantastical world of theatre and film with quotidian reality. I lean into experimental forms of playwriting and screenwriting by intermixing past and present; writing from a confluence of the spiritual and lyrical. I am concerned with utilizing my viewpoints and experiences in a way that will transcend the minds of the world\, in order to reconfigure how to better be of service for mental and interpersonal concerns. Many have ignored these matters out of ignorance and defeat. As artists\, we have the license to tell stories in an ethical manner. I believe writing can position the reader within a context that brings awareness to mental wellbeing; which is most commonly mishandled by the nature of psychology; as well as ironically overlooked by the very resources designed to address these conditions. My writing solidifies my position as an artist; attacking stigmas often tethered historically to those who are disenfranchised. I aim to not only destigmatize these issues\, but to present them in a manner in which they have yet to be conveyed\, in order to engrace them. We\, as artists\, are somewhat politicians\, using our platform to address the many challenges of our lives. My writing expands on concerns within mental health\, propelling us as a community in a direction of true liberation from the constructs of ignorance. The purpose of my writing is to impact the ideology of people in society in regards to mental wellness. \n\n\n\nBiography Website | Youtube Robert Wallace is a Brooklyn native\, who was classically trained in Theatre at North Carolina Central University. He is committed to developing an aesthetic that sits in a liminal space between Theatre and Film. Robert has starred in four independent films\, and has borrowed from his academic experiences to propel himself in the world of picture-making. “I am of those that came before all of us.” His practice focuses on the format of a One-Man Show as an apparatus to explore the politics of black masculinity. His most recent experimental theatre work “The First Lefty\,” was presented as part of Art In Odd Places (2021). He is also the auteur of a sold-out one-man play entitled “The Next Event” that was presented independently in 2017 at the historic Gene Frankel Theatre in New York City. Robert is not only a thespian\, but a playwright\, screenwriter\, director\, producer\, and poet.

SUMMARY:For the Public Closing Reception with Rebecca KellyG Performance
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a closing reception and performance as part of the For The Public group exhibition. See full details about the For The Public exhibition. \nRSVP to this event. \n\nRebecca KellyG will perform “Closing Cycles” at the closing. Closing Cycles is an immersive sound experience that uplifts the necessity of self-care/accountability for collective justice. Rebecca creates multi-layered vocal soundscapes and offers reflections on her soul journey while inviting those in the audience to engage and reflect on their own. In this performance-workshop\, we will start to disentangle from the ideas of “self” given to us by the oppressive systems we live within\, begin to tap into our own gold\, and joyfully step into the sun. \n\n\n\nBiography \nWebsite | Instagram \n\n\n \nRebecca KellyG (she/her) is a Healing Sound Artist and Facilitator rooted in anti-racist practices. Her passion for both sound and social change has been with her since youth\, evolving from a love for theater and performance into work as a civil rights attorney and flourishing in her current expression as a facilitator and sound artist. Rebecca supports individuals and groups in challenging oppressive conditioned beliefs\, embracing accountability\, and cultivating self-care for our personal and collective liberation. She engages in this work through workshops\, immersive sound experiences\, equity and justice consulting\, and retreats. A selection of Rebecca’s previous partnerships include Artists Space\, Leslie Lohman Museum of Art\, Ensemble Studio Theatre\, and Yale University Art Gallery. Her work has been included in spaces such as The Everywoman Biennial\, Black Girl Magik\, Infinite Possibilities Art Festival\, and for The United State of Women.

Sometimes they are on the scale of theatrical backdrops and are sometimes used that way in the hundreds of performative events she curates. Curation at the intersection of quality and diversity is very important to Sally. A fifteen year New York resident\, she is from New Orleans\, where her family started Mardi Gras parades. Her artwork and curation pairs New York City’s high standards with New Orleans’s festiveness and surprise.

DESCRIPTION:Rain delay date will be June 11 @ 8:00pm – 11:00 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCreekworthy is an event series taking place through the warm-weather months of 2022 on the Newtown Creek and in Hunters Point South Park. Creekworthy’s first installation will feature a selection of looped films related to this location\, boat tours to U-Thant Island with on-boat puppet show\, and temporary tattoos measuring the Creek’s filthiness. \n\n\n\nRSVPs are now full for boat rides to U-Thant Island & puppet show by Raine Trainor. The entire outdoor space is wheelchair accessible\, and please inquire to nat@fluxfactory.org with accessibility questions for boat rides. Be advised that the nearest subways are quite a walk from the kayak launch. \n\n\n\nParticipating Artists include Nate Dorr\, Cody Ann Herrmann\, Nathan Kensinger\, Sindhu Thirumalaisamy\, Raine Trainor\, and Virginia Wagner. \n\n\n\nAbout the artists and their artworks:\n\n\n\nVirginia Wagner’s The Mothers is a new 2-D animation projected onto a floating screen\, reflecting onto the creek as an imperfect double. The video follows an old woman who holes herself up in a large house on the water. She grows into the architecture as nature reclaims the house. Wagner’s work examines the tension between humans and the natural world. Raised in a family of biologists and trained as a scientific illustrator\, she has a unique perspective from which to observe the psychological and physical effects of our quickly changing planet. She has recently been commissioned by National Geographic to create a series of paintings about climate change for a polar passenger ship and by the Guggenheim Works & Process. \n\n\n\nRaine Trainor’s Tour Guide is run by unhinged puppets who consume the black mayo at the bottom of Newtown Creek for lunch daily. Inspired by that sustenance\, the journey will take fellow seamen around U Thant/Belmont Island—Manhattan’s tiniest artificial island nestled in the shadow of the UN. Blending fact and fiction of the ever-changing physicality of the space\, the guides will provide a filtered history of the past and present. The tour adrift\, just an ear shot from the FDR\, will range from the fluid ontology of the waterways to the layered existence of the micronation island. Native cormorants will look on as striped bass munch below\, giving an alternate experience of this precious jewel of landmass. Raine Trainor has been sailing the New York waterways for 9 years\, creating experiences and work within and without the East River.  \n\n\n\nSindhu Thirumalaisamy’s Afterlife\, an excerpt of The Lake and The Lake dwells in the peripheries of Bellandur lake in Bangalore\, where the act of observation is interrupted by flying foam\, noxious gases\, daydreams\, and questions from passers-by. The 2019 film won the jury award for Best Documentary at the 58th Ann Arbor Film Festival. Sindhu Thirumalaisamy is an artist and filmmaker whose work centres (un)common spaces and the possibilities for speech and action with/in them. Sindhu has worked in relation to hospitals\, parks\, streets\, kitchens\, temples\, mosques\, lakes and roadsides—spaces that hold potential for collective resistance and care. \n\n\n\nNathan Kensinger and Nate Dorr’s Reclaimed Ground is a 2016 documentary film documenting the wild landscape of Hunter’s Point South\, which was completely demolished in 2016. At our event\, the artists will project selections from this video onto surfaces within Hunter’s Point South Park\, highlighting the species and green spaces that existed here before the park was built. Nate Dorr and Nathan Kensinger have been collaboratively documenting the waterfront of New York City for the past 16 years. Nathan is an interdisciplinary artist whose work explores forgotten waterways\, environmental disasters\, and coastal communities endangered by sea level rise and climate change. Nate Dorr is a filmmaker and photographer working in the margins of the urban landscape\, where deep interactions between architecture\, ecology\, history\, and socioeconomic systems become more visible. \n\n\n\nCody Ann Herrmann’s Citizens Water Quality Testing Temporary Tattoos measure levels of enterococcus in the Creek. High concentrations of enterococcus typically indicate the presence of combined sewage overflows (CSO)\, and that people should avoid touching the water. Cody Ann Herrmann is a New York City based artist and community organizer with an interest in participatory design methods\, public space\, and urban resilience. Since 2014 Cody’s work has revolved around her hometown of Flushing\, Queens\, creating a series of projects critiquing policy related to land use and environmental planning in areas surrounding Flushing Bay and Flushing Creek.

SUMMARY:Solstice Pop-Up Group Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition open hours are on Saturdays (June 18 & 25) 12pm-8pm\, Sundays (June 19 & 26) 11am-5pm \n\n\n\n\n\nLearn more about Flux Factory’s projects on Governors Island. \n\n\n\n\n\nSolstice is a convening of eleven artists in celebration of the Summer Solstice\, the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere\, and the first day of summer. Each of these artists engages with light as a central component of their work\, and this exhibition celebrates the sun and the energy that makes all life possible on Earth. Artists in this show use a multitude of light sources\, which are then reflected\, refracted\, gathered\, captured\, directed\, shattered\, lensed\, and bent into new form. \n\n\n\nParticipating artists include: Valeria Divinorum – @valeriadivinorum | Magali Duzant – @magaliduzant | Rita Jimenez – @iritadescent | Night Shining – @_nightshining | Camilla Padgitt-Coles – @ivymeadows | Steven Pestana – @stevenpestana | Sophia Sobers – @sobers__ | Jonathan Sims – @chromadetic | George Stadnik – @geostadnik | Testu Collecathantive – @testucollective | Anika Todd – @anikatodd \n\n\n\nSolstice is curated by Jonathan Sims\, a New York City based visual artist. ​​His visual arts practice is characterized by geometric abstractions and light. A consistent premise underlying his work is that a modern human’s relationship with the very ancient past is mirrored in their relationship with the distant future.

In her anthology documentary\, Sound Spring\, residents of Yellow Springs\, Ohio become actors lip-syncing to their own interviews\, narrating their village’s role in American history over hundreds of years. Her 16mm shorts include Paco\, the story of a man who wants you to bounce on his lap. With this film and all her others\, Catalina Alvarez gets to know her neighbors. \n\n\n\nPatrick Topitschnig is an Austrian filmmaker and audio artist whose works also include collaborations with theatre projects. \n\n\n\n“A kind of black humor pervades Patrick Topitschnig’s videos. Like in the horror-movie genre he works with audiovisual situations which affect the bodies of the spectators\, provoking an uncertainty\, sometimes a slight restlessness. Precisely composed images expose their own constructedness and testify to the artist’s interest in cinematic duration. Occasionally\, this duration becomes a metaphor for the literal “lifetime” of protagonists\, objects\, and buildings. All aspects of cinematic sound – a composed score\, music\, spoken language – are used to reflect the connections between image and narration creating a very specific atmosphere\, whereas the “real“ backstory of a work is often revealed much later\, be it the history of an abandoned salt mine in Romania or a portrait of a high-tech funeral home in Australia.“ – Claudia Slanar

SUMMARY:Creekworthy: Unfiltered
DESCRIPTION:Find our group at this pin! \n\n\n\nFor the second installment of Flux Factory’s Creekworthy series\, which takes place on the water/waterfront near Hunters Point South park\, Flux presents artists who educate and reflect on water contamination. \n\n\n\nJocelyn Beausire‘s “SLOW/DEEP a project in unbuilding” is a solo performance taking place from 6:30-8:30pm along the waters edge. In the artist’s words\, “(Re)introducing intimacy between the site’s human inhabitants and the now long-distrusted waterways of the East River and Newtown Creek\, I initiate a reparation. As a form of embodied archival practice\, I unearth the site’s history – from Lenape territory to Dutch cornfields to industrial wasteland\, to parkland surrounded by high-rise developments. Dragging bricks from my waist by white cloth lines and casting them into the water\, I trace the edge path. Corn-based and completely biodegradable\, their materiality presents an offering\, a generative irony which undermines the brick’s symbolic violence and rewrites the relationships between builder\, building\, and place.” \n\n\n\nMeanwhile\, NYseaweed (Shanjana Mahmud and Luke Eddins) and Cody Herrmann will lead educational tabling. \n\n\n\nMahmud and Eddins are producing “an array of habitat panels for ribbed mussels that will be mounted along the bulkheads of Newtown Creek. The panels will be made of fiber reinforced cement with a coating of crushed oyster shells. As part of the fabrication process\, on the 23rd the artists will invite the public “to put their fingers and hands in the wet and hardening cement surface to make the little recesses and grooves that give the mussel spat sheltered spots to settle in.” \n\n\n\nHerrmann will set up a temporary tattoo station offering passer-bys free temporary tattoos\, adhered with water from the Creek. The tattoos depict Citizens Water Quality Testing data\, measuring levels of enterococcus bacteria\, which reflect the presence of combined sewage overflows and times when people should avoid touching the water.

SUMMARY:Meal8: Open Kitchen with Red Flower Collective
DESCRIPTION:Meal8: Open Kitchen is centered around dishes that can be cooked in the absence of fire. With the limitations of the available kitchen in mind\, we explore in this menu propositions for a kitchen without heat: cooking without a stove or oven; operating with limited access to water; and focusing on fermented\, cured\, macerated\, preserved\, and pickled ingredients.  \n\n\n\nWe know it’s going to be late-summer hot\, so we’ll be serving up a medley of specialty drinks and cool\, fresh\, restoring courses. The meal will be picnic-style\, with floor seating in a shaded\, grassy area. The location is wheelchair accessible and we can provide chair seating upon request. \n\n\n\nRSVP here \n\n\n\nRed Flower Collective is a food research and eating collective organized by art historian and researcher\, Erin Montanez; artist and art worker\, Jenna Hamed\, and artist-homemaker\, Tsohil Bhatia. In the year since its inception\, the collective has hosted free\, open meals out of borrowed kitchens loaned by friends and institutions. With a rotating membership of artists\, chefs and homecooks\, and community organizers\, the collective is interested in sharing food and cooking together through community meals\, installations\, and programs. The project takes food and the labors of cooking as key tools in forgoing the sterility of the gallery exhibition space\, collaborating with practitioners to center generational culinary histories and affirm diasporic identities.  \n\n\n\nRed Flower Collective was born during COVID 19\, out of the desire to eat with people\, to counter the taboo of being together and sharing home space\, and to assert that food is a primary issue of public concern. We are drawn to the idea of a porous home\, one that is malleable based on both individual and collective need. The provision of a meal and the meal as an event invites a group of people unfamiliar to one another to assemble. The collective aims to break the transactional nature of food consumption and instead encourage communal eating. The nature of care is at the center of the collective’s project. \n\n\n\nInstagram: @redflowercollective

SUMMARY:Every Nigga Is A Star Trek Club Event

For the general public\, please come by for the open studio hours on Sunday.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what is Every Nigga Is A Star Trek about? \n\n\n\nEvery Nigga Is A Star Trek is a dreamscape that exists to connect Black people to the bliss we so rightly deserve. It is a meeting ground to reclaim and reimagine our accessibility to bliss. It is beyond the physical realm\, and instead a portal of the senses experienced through community. \n\n\n\nWhat does the night look/feel like? \n\n\n\nEvery Nigga Is A Star Trek invites its passengers to journey through varying galaxies of Black bliss. Through experiential design\, visual imagery\, and creative production the dreamscape will offer multiple opportunities for guests to engage in bliss autonomously. All activities stations have been intentionally designed to follow a gradual progression of participation and stamina as the night moves. It is our hope that every Black person who experiences the dreamscape will feel empowered to create and sustain their own portal of joy. \n\n\n\n***Every Nigga Is A Star Trek centers Black people and Black joy. With this in mind\, we’d like to distinguish the space as a BIPOC-folx only social experience. \n\n\n\nMain Nightclub Event \n\n\n\n***Note: There will be a playlist on throughout the night until the live DJ set.  \n\n\n\n10 PM Start Time \n\n\n\n10 PM-11 PM  \n\n\n\nArrivalMingleExploration of Space\n\n\n\n11:30 PM-12:15 AM \n\n\n\nArrival Chill Zone Activity (Meditation Sound Bath)Exploration of Space\n\n\n\n12:30 AM-1:30 AM \n\n\n\nDance/Vogue PerformanceCallouts\n\n\n\n1:30 AM-3:30 AM \n\n\n\nDJ SetSoul Train Line\n\n\n\nThis event is part of the Pink Flamingo: Clubs In Flux Group Exhibition at the cell theatre. \n\n\n\nA note on accessibility: Unfortunately\, the cell is not wheelchair-accessible and visitors must go up a flight of stairs to access the space on the second floor.

SUMMARY:i would die 2 u
DESCRIPTION:Friends and Lovers\, come to Flux Factory’s latest showing of multimedia composition at the ARoS Auditorium. Expect filmic interludes\, the sounds of badgers cooing and cawing\, a daxophone orchestra\, the gentle hum of electronic music in the forest\, and a baby. \n\n\n\nCatalina Alvarez will present new films. She makes choreographed films and experimental musicals. In her anthology documentary\, Sound Spring\, residents of Yellow Springs\, Ohio become actors lip-syncing to their own interviews\, narrating their village’s role in American history over hundreds of years. Her 16mm shorts include Paco\, the story of a man who wants you to bounce on his lap. With this film and all her others\, Catalina Alvarez gets to know her neighbors. \n\n\n\nDaniel Fishkin will present a daxophone concert. Composer\, sound artist\, and instrument builder. Completely ambivalent about music. Daniel studied with composer Maryanne Amacher and with multi-instrumentalist Mark Stewart. He has performed as a soloist on modular synthesizer with the American Symphony Orchestra\, developed sound installations in abandoned concert halls\, and played innumerable basement punk shows. Daniel’s lifework investigating the aesthetics of hearing damage has received international press (Nature Journal\, 2014); as an ally in the search for a cure\, he has been awarded the title of  “tinnitus ambassador” by the Deutsche Tinnitus-Stiftung. He is the only luthier that studied with the daxophone’s inventor\, Hans Reichel. \n\n\n\nRSVP on Facebook for this event
