This exhibition takes Mount Tremper Arts as both a point of
convergence and departure for artists engaging with creative
disciplines outside their own. Within Mount Tremper Arts’s studio and surrounds,
different types of performances inform each other, and conversations
about their contingencies and commonalities emerge. In these works, the
idea of “performance” is itself a site of mutual investigation:
photographers reveal everyday choreography; sound artists explore
listening as performance; writers stage events to complicate their
texts; and visual artists parse the somatic languages of dance and
sleep. Through collaborations and curious analysis, Meeting Point makes
explicit the arcs and instances of contact constellating artistic
disciplines together.
