Date: Saturday, June 24, 2023

Time: 11AM-1PM

Location: MSD: Green Roof Pavilion,  2350 Market St. St. Louis, MO 63103 

Details:

Water is life. The public will join together to honor/heal the water, water systems, and Mississippi River through sound art and ritual. Chambers will lead the healing experience. In this site-specific ekphrastic response, Chambers attempts to encapsulate the movement of people, water, and nature through sound.

Notes for attendees:

  • Participants should wear white and consider something they would like to release in preparation for this experience.

  • This is an outdoor event, drinking water will be available onsite.

Dail Chambers works with ancestors, the environment, and tradition to reclaim and transform public spaces of neglect, pollution, and mistreatment. Chambers is a mother, artist, healer, and environmentalist that practices social sculpture. Her work is deeply connected to her southern roots, expressing the American Black Migration, Native lands and people, women's issues, and emerging economies. She is a doula, coach, permaculturist, and more.

Jen has been an artist in residence at the Fire Island Artist Residency, Vermont Studio Center, Atlantic Center for the Arts and ACRE. She was a 2021-22 Duke University DocX Archive Lab fellow.
