Created by Sara Zalek and Eugene Sun Park, this event is an immersive experience of projections, live performance, and sound as we begin to edit the series of short films about an androgynous trickster hero, often out of time, who travels through watery environments where present, sudden memory, and dream states co-mingle.

Eugene Sun Park is Executive Director of FULL SPECTRUM FEATURES NFP, a Chicago-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to increasing diversity in the media arts by producing, exhibiting, and supporting the work of women, LGBTQ, and minority filmmakers. This work is made possible by DCASE and Chicago Dancemakers Forum (CDF), Sara Zalek is a 2015 CDF Lab Artist, and was supported by residencies at the Dance Studio at the Chicago Cultural Center and Light Box, Detroit.
