Join us for an extra serving of Ultra! during an afternoon of exciting performance art on Saturday, August 21 at 3pm from the artists Ibuki Kuramochi and Beck + Col with Tetiana Sklyarova and Kayla Aguila.

Ibuki Kuramochi presents Corps sans Organes, a performance with Butoh movement and live painting on a massive canvas. Under the theme of the philosophical concept "body without organs", Ibuki kuramochi will present the intrinsic, sexuality and transformative nature of the body.

Beck + Col with Tetiana Sklyarova and Kayla Aguila present Horror Without End! doubling , which considers the gothic concept of the double. This uncanny figure belongs to the realm of the frightening, evoking fear and dread in the original. It begins with the initial monster’s desire for self annihilation manifesting its own double. A wicked apparition of itself materializes and begins to mirror its creator. As if in recognition of its own fate, the original monster knows the double and fears it. As the double begins to break into its own consciousness, a conflict ensues. Its futile attempts to regain control lead the original monster into a depressive madness. Surrendering, the desire for self annihilation is fulfilled and the original monster fades away.

As with all events at TAM, admission is FREE. No reservation required. We recommend arriving early to ensure your spot and to view the exhibitions.
