FugueState

Jane Gotch performs in collaboration and response to an installation of photography, projection, and sound by Timothy Amundson

FUGUE STATE

Friday April 12th, 2013, Opening reception 6-10pm
Performances throughout the evening

The Roost Gallery, 1100 Santa Fe, KCMO 64101

The term fugue state is defined as a dissociative amnesia, especially one that involves unplanned wandering. Timothy Amundson expresses that “nothing is actually constant, nothing has been created.” His work is a variant from the representational nature of photography and explores heightened experience, where the unknown is corroborated with references to the everyday. The photographs are immersive and utilize light in ways that question traditional norms of photography. Through this approach there is as much a sense of levity as there is meditational weight. In collaboration with dancer Jane Gotch the more cerebral elements of the images can be explored through the body.

Jane Gotch and Justin Hundley perform

6:30-7pm between 16th and 17th Streets at Grand Street

This performance is part of a national initiative called, Better Block. As part of First Friday, Jason Roberts has brought Better Block to KC.

The “Better Block” project is a demonstration tool that revisions an area to show the potential to create a great walkable, vibrant neighborhood center. The project acts as a living charrette so that communities can actively engage in the “complete streets” buildout process and develop pop-up businesses to show the potential for revitalized economic activity in an area. Better Blocks are now being performed throughout the country, and have helped cities rapidly implement infrastructure and policy changes.

David Ollington review of and we hold tight together

By On February 14, 2010 In News, Press With No Comments Permanent Link to David Ollington review of and we hold tight togetherPermalink

“Cellist Justin Cowart accompanied “and we hold tight together,” a trio by Jane Gotch. Gotch intuitively created a piece with nuance and subtle changes in energy. It hypnotized us with dynamic yet simple relationships between the dancers and a powerful cellist.”
