Feminine Ritual and Myth from Performance Artist Shana Robbin
Atlanta-based artist Shana Robbins' costumed and choreographed rituals of passage create her odd and evocative vision of theatre.
From the exhibition page:
[Her] works address conditions of feminine power, natural phenomena, and cycles of life and death. Using a variety of media, she presents herself as a solitary and galvanizing figure, elaborately costumed and performing ritualized gestures in unique landscapes. Drawing on her own experiences as model and student of Butoh movement, and on numerous mythologies that link womanhood with the Earth and roles of conduit and healer, Robbins creates composite narratives of identity and transformation.
