Field Workshop: Action Projects

FIeldworkshopBright.jpg
In 2020, ICA LA made its Field Workshop space available for use by artists and community groups dedicated to the movement for change. We considered short-term projects and activities that focused on learning, civic engagement, and self-care.

Each of these projects is summarized in Yellow Pages our museum blog and chronicle of highlights at ICA LA. Bulletins contributed by Habiba Hopson, 2020 Getty Marrow Intern. Read here

Climate Crisis Hotline
With the understanding that the Climate Crisis is deeply entwined with other ongoing injustices and struggles, Space Saloon and Creative Migration will host a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental space in the Field Workshop to verbally confront the topic of Solastasia, the paralyzing melancholia induced from environmental distress.

From August 26-29, the collective will prototype the Climate Crisis Hotline.
Similar to a confession booth or wishing well, this multi-faceted platform seeks to validate individuals’ concerns and offer an opportunity to participate in a community dialogue. Through a variety of outreach and engagement methods, Space Saloon and Creative Migration invite members of the public to connect, unwind, and respond. Information gathered will be part of the ongoing research on climate despair and eco therapy to generate a living, immersive archive of voices and an experimental tableau of collective aural expression.

The first step to confronting our feelings towards the Climate Crisis is through speaking about it. This workshop will collectively develop conversational frameworks focused on safe, comfortable and non-judgemental outreach methods.

Space Saloon and Creative Migration are both non-profit art organizations that engage in practices to raise awareness on environmental issues through participatory workshops, artist residencies, urban interventions and social practice art.

Space Saloon is a design laboratory on the move. They are a collective of architects, artists, and researchers who work with the public in exploring new frontiers for design and education. Their pedagogical projects build communities, promote tolerance, and foster engagement through the production of transdisciplinary forms of knowledge.

Creative Migration, is a women-led, international arts organization based Los Angeles and Bangkok. Founded in 2005, their mission is to advance cultural diplomacy through art, public engagement and sustainability. Their programming builds relationships and develops collaborations through three primary strands: Artist Residencies & Creative Hubs, Site-specific Installations and Transmedia Projects.

Sept 1-5
Undanced Dances Through Prison Walls During a Pandemic is a week of embodying dances written inside the California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) prison during the COVID-19 lockdowns of Spring 2020. Suchi Branfman (project director/lead choreographer) has invited these fellow choreographer/dancers to inhabit the written dances: Bernard Brown, Jay Carlon, Ernst Fenelon Jr., Irvin Gonzalez, Kenji Igus, Brianna Mims, and Tom Tsai.

In 2016, choreographer/dancer/educator Suchi Branfman, began a five-year choreographic residency inside the prison gym at the CRC prison, a medium security men’s state prison in Norco, CA. Weekly gatherings to dance and create with the incarcerated men were abruptly halted in March 2020. The California state prison system shut down all programming and visitation due to COVID-19. The program was rapidly revised and the dancers began sending out imagined written choreographies from their prison bunks to the world to imagine Undanced Dances through Prison Walls During a Pandemic.

Info on Undanced Dances Through Prison Walls During a Pandemic here.
