SUMMARY:Untitled (Applying Joint Compound)
DESCRIPTION:The Mayworks Halifax Festival presents \nVideo installation / performance by Michael Di Risio\nFREE admission \nUntitled (Applying Joint Compound) (2016) is a video-installation and performance that attempts to make visible the labour involved in maintaining public spaces. Though often unseen and undervalued\, maintenance work is a fundamental component of the production of social space\, in turn supporting other forms of collective work and cultural production. Through a reflection on the nuances of this work\, the viewer is invited to consider what is involved in the production of the spaces that they typically inhabit. \nNOTE: While the performance will take place on May 2nd at 7pm\, the video installation will remain in the Bus Stop Theatre lobby from May 2nd to May 4th. \nMichael Di Risio\nAn artist and writer currently based in Kingston\, ON. His writing has appeared in Art Papers\, Afterimage\, Fuse Magazine\, C Magazine and PUBLIC Journal\, among others\, where he reflects on art as a social force. He has participated in recent exhibitions at the Workers Arts and Heritage Centre\, Artcite and Museum London\, with forthcoming exhibitions at the Thames Art Gallery and the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. He holds an MFA from the University of Windsor and is currently the Artistic Director of Modern Fuel Artist-Run Centre. \n  \nPresented in partnership with the Bus Stop Theatre Co-op

SUMMARY:I was There
DESCRIPTION:The Mayworks Halifax Festival presents \nAn Audiovisual installation by Katie Toth and Mary-Dan Johnston\nFREE admission\n\nIt goes like this: the bank closes\, along with the grocery\, then the laundromat\, the club\, the pub\, the corner store where we bought popsicles and cartons of milk. The schools crumbled and were consolidated. Now\, standing on the same spot where I bought my first vodka cran\, underage\, there is thick gravel where years ago I felt linoleum\, softer\, sticking to the sole of my shoe.\nThe geography remains the same\, but the landscape changes\nI was there is an attempt to illuminate the psychogeography of a city that is often accused of being stuck in the past. This mixed-media installation combines photography\, oral history testimony and cartography to shed a light on what is lost in the process of gentrification.\n  \nLocation and Hours\nThis piece is presented in the lobby of The Bus Stop Theatre Co-op and can be experienced ahead or after any event presented at this location. I can also be experience between 10am and 4pm daily from May 8th to 10th. \nBiographies\nKatie Toth is an emerging audio artist and digital/audio journalist who has been published in VICE\, the Village Voice\, and NPR. Her first art piece\, which celebrated New York City’s public transit system\, was produced in collaboration with photographer Lara Atallah\, and displayed at The New York City Transit Museum’s community artist event Platform. \nMary-Dan Johnston is a writer\, researcher\, educator working at the intersections of the public and the private. Trained as an oral historian and qualitative researcher\, she is particularly interested in how the political economy of the Maritimes has shaped the embodied experiences of working people. Her writing has recently appeared in GUTS Canadian Feminist Magazine. Her art practice uses street photography to capture moments of tension and collaboration between individuals and the built environment. \n  \nPresented in partnership with the Bus Stop Theatre Cooperative and the StART Festival. \n \n
