Communicator Series no. 4

  • Poetic Research Bureau 2220 Beverly Blvd Los Angeles United States (map)

Pre-medicated. Irreverent. Cutty and sprung. Communicator Series no. 4 activates with calculated precision, in spite and solidarity. Tuesday April 16th, 7pm, at Poetic Research Bureau. Performances by jeremy kennedy and Bay Area artist Tatiana Luboviski-Acosta negotiate incoherence and insurrectionary strategies for dismembering linearity...i.e. if it can exist it must exist. Devotedly yours.

Communicator Series highlights queer and trans* performance artists whose practice is situated in-between. We're here for work that is switchy, vers, and language-curious. Work that can’t resist approaching the potential of failure, that the teases the edges of form as a poetic strategy of becoming otherwise, that fucks around and sometimes finds out, or at least challenges you to.

ARTISTS

Jeremy Kennedy (b. 01.01.1980) has been creating and exhibiting art and ideas in community and academic settings since the mid-1990s. Before moving to Los Angeles in 2009, the largely self-taught artist spent over a decade living and working in Bloomington, Indiana. Her pieces and projects have been featured in publications and journals internationally, and in galleries, streets, backyards, and basements across the U.S. 

Her practice as an active sound-maker (i.e.: composer, performer, producer of designed(?) sound), both informs and is informed in equal relation to the other aspects of her art. Behind these scenes, she is the remaining member / now operator of the fairweather micro-label, The Fuck Me Stupid Mountain Princess Recording Collective (FMSMPRC). 

As co-founder, playwright, and reluctant performer with P/Sicho Street Theater Company, she produces collaborative radio/audio theatre productions and site-specific works for stage & salon. She can be found in print as the author of A Gamble in this Dress, Free Flyer (Volume One), NOTE TO SEA, was a contributing essayist/editor of Cry List, and is a founding editor of the artbook/poetry imprint Rebel Hands Press. Her new book, Mandatory Administrative Leave is forthcoming Spring 2024 from Make Now Books.
