Upcoming Events

Little Jiggling Particles is a performative event for LANDING, under the focus theme of energy.

The work consists of a collection of inflated weather balloons and a brass band, all freely moving, untethered and un-choreographed, within the space. The balloons act as giant speakers that receive and carry sound, especially the low, bass sounds. By touching the balloons, visitors can hear the sound with their fingertips, cheek or whole body.

In this iteration of the performance, members of the Santa Cruz High School Cardinal Regiment will perform with the balloons.

“Wendy Jacob has been making and exhibiting work since 1988, always with a keen interest in the negotiation and understanding of architectural and domestic spaces. With work that expands the sensory dimensions of art, she invites the blind and hard of hearing to experience galleries and museums primarily through touch rather than sight and sound, subsequently subverting the able-bodied visitor’s expectations of the white cube, asking them to reconsider and reframe their point of view.” — Emily McDermott, Artpapers
