Out of a practice and desire to challenge traditions and systems that have contributed to the marginalization of people, multi-disciplinary artist Dorian Wood brought visibility to invisible labor with Carry us, nourish them (prayer). For this itinerant performance work, she moved through Schindler House using their body and breath to honor the contracted laborers responsible for the initial construction and subsequent restorations of the building. In partnership with the MAK Center, homeLA presents In Their Own Image, a performance program in dialogue with a selection of photographic works from Austrian-born and self-proclaimed feminist artist VALIE EXPORT called Body Configurations, on view as part of “VALIE EXPORT: Embodied” at the MAK Center for Art and Architecture at the Schindler House. In Their Own Image was a performance program curated by Chloë Flores featuring new work by performing artists Zackary Drucker, Sierra Fujita, Emily Lucid, Lara Salmon, Andrea Soto, and Dorian Wood. The program developed from an invitation to create work in response to VALIE EXPORT's series of physicalized performative actions and early feminist provocations known as Body Configurations. The artists were asked to consider this body of work within the specific context of the Schindler House in Los Angeles, CA, where select works from this series will be exhibited. Each artist engaged the proposition with work that responds to –– and subverts –– the spatial contexts of the Schindler House, just as EXPORT’s interventions in public space reframed the spatialized female body.

Performed on July 9, 2023 @ Human Resources Los Angeles As BIH, vocalists/multidisciplinary artists Carmina Escobar, Roco Córdova and Dorian Wood consider the contexts of space, public proximity and ancestral energy to construct a web-like spatial environment consisting of their interacting voices. Each artist brings their respective trajectory to this intention, replete with mindfulness and an urgency to continue addressing hidden narratives around body autonomy and claiming/reclaiming space, specifically relating to the queer cosmic family model: the blood we choose. As an evening-length performance, BIH investigate fluid histories through ritualistic practices and material experimentation, centering on the broad possibilities of vocalization. BIH transform the space, intermittently inviting the public to engage in a mutation of process, utilizing concepts of voice as both unifiers and isolators. BIH pose the following: Are we vessels for something finite, or conduits for a broader, more complex purpose? Blood is here is a plea for an alternative to documentation and archiving that relies on human presence, mindfulness, focus, perspective and legend to assist in the longevity of our existences.
