Light Work’s Urban Video Project cordiallly invites you to Enter the Portal: Building Liberated Worlds, a multimedia performance and panel talk with UVP commissioned artists LaJuné McMillian and Manuel Molina Martagon on Thursday, November 6 in the Everson Museum auditorium.

McMillian and Molina Martagon’s collaborative practice reframes motion capture technology as “motion witnessing” and repurposes popular game engines used in the creation of first-person shooter and battle royale MMO games as tools of liberation.

The performance will be followed by a panel discussion between the artists and local creatives Kofi Antwi, Chloe Flores, Sofia Gutierrez, and Martikah Williams, who appear in  The Portal’s Keeper, their new piece for UVP created in-residence at Light Work. The Portal’s Keeper will be on view in the Everson Museum plaza following the event.

Light refreshments from Recess Coffee & Roastery will be served.

This event is FREE & OPEN to the public.
