Description:

Site specific response in Miami. On top of a container in a parking lot during Art Basel, December 2018. Creating the image of a dollar sign in the sky above of the artist during the art fair. Surrounded by the skyscrapers, new lofts and the other art fairs this was an action happening in public view facing the main street. Because of the wind, the still image became a moving image and developed a repetitive movement and choreography of chasing the helium dollar balloon which was attached to a string connected to the artist.

Performance Is Alive has partnered once again with Satellite Art Show to present 20 works from a diverse selection of performance artists. Alive At Satellite exclusively features live and video based performance art projects. The 4-day performance program celebrates SATELLITE’s mission to honor the significant impact of performance art – an often underrepresented and underprivileged medium.

This year performance artists will embrace the location shift from Miami Beach to a vast 33,000 sq ft parking lot in downtown Miami by exploring beyond the boundaries of a centralized performance zone. Our performances are often interactive and durational, allowing the viewer to not just witness but to become fully immersed within the experience of performance. Political protest paired with an earnest quest to harness identity thru social conflict are recurring points of motivation for Alive at Satellite artists. We invite you to join us in protest, drink tea with us on the back of an artist and to witness your first (and perhaps your only) face ballet. In the true spirit of SATELLITE – no two moments will be the same.
