<h2>BODY</h2>Presented by Meg Affonso &amp; Albany Center GallerySundays: August 2nd, 9th, 16th from 2-4 p.m. Free &amp; open to the public.BODY is an experiential &amp; immersive art installation that explores the sacred connection between the body &amp; the soul that exists in each individual. The elements of BODY include: three short dance/dialogue based films, live sculpture, an immersive viewer experience, collective artistic creation, photography &amp; a ritual of release through writing which will be transformed into physical art symbolic of rebirth. BODY is inspired by Walt Whitman&#x27;s poem “I Sing the Body Electric”, the artist&#x27;s own personal life experiences and current events in today&#x27;s world. BODY is representative of the struggles that individuals face from birth through death and the beauty that exists in between all of the difficulties. BODY is an examination of our ego, prejudices, biases and the path of choosing to grow and live our soul’s truth. BODY is a collective art experience by promoting community through storytelling and encouraging art as a path to healing &amp; self-realization that we can all enjoy no matter our backgrounds or beliefs.Created, Written &amp; Choreographed by Meg AffonsoPerformance Art by Meg Affonso &amp; Emily MusialShort Films Directed by Morgan Elizabeth Millogo &amp; Filmed by Mike MillerPhotography by Mike Millerwww.albanycentergallery.org (The show will hold 4 time slots to observe social distancing each Sunday. 10 people max per time slot.
