Event Series Unheard-of Ensemble

Unheard-of Ensemble : Ginger Flavored Bubblegum

Gowanus Dredgers Bunker (19th St.) 2 19th St., Brooklyn, NY

Join Unheard-of Ensemble and the Gowanus Dredgers for an expanded version of Ginger Flavored Bubblegum. The work explores transcendence from grief by honoring poet, filmmaker, and artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha - who was murdered only a few days after the publication of her poetic autobiography, "Dictee." Using selections of poetry from Dictee, this expanded version explores grief using Unheard-of Ensemble, electronics, and videography by Phong Tran (who some might recognize from his electronic set last season).
