Ending Precedence
By Eric Shekerjian
Ending Precedence is a site specific installation that was made in collaboration with Emily Kessler. Eric Shekerjian and Emily Kessler independently developed music and dance in response to the Leandro Erlich installation, Ports of Reflection, in the Neuberger Museum of Art. The music and dance did not directly interact with one another, but rather existed simultaneously within the same space, allowing incidental shared moments to create the illusion of reflection. The performance occurred in the gallery space allowing the sounds and movement of the audience to be an extension of the piece. Premiere: Neuberger Museum of Art, Purchase, NY (2017)
