About the Event
Join us for Lisa E. Harris’ musical response to the fall exhibition, Kapwani Kiwanga: The Sand Recalls the Moon’s Shadow.
Import, Harris’ on-site performance created for the Moody, questions the movement of creative resources as they flow through people and goods within a city and as a spiritual exchange that occurs within a person.
A Monroe Research Fellow at Tulane University’s Center for the Gulf South, Lisa “Li” Harris is also the 2021 recipient of the Dorothea Tanning Award for Music/Sound, awarded by the Foundation for Contemporary Arts. Recognized by Huffington Post as one of “14 Artist Who Are Transforming the Future of Opera,” Li’s work resists genre classification as she focuses on the energetic relationships between body, land, spirit, and place. She is also the founder and creative director of Studio Enertia, an arts collective and production company in Houston, Texas.
