Inspired
by
two
current
exhibitions
at
Blaffer
Art
Museum,
first
year
master’s
students
Ashley
Wang,
Miranda
Keating,
and
Khanthida
Mounivong
will
present
a
multi-disciplinary
performance
confronting
the
constructed
social
expectations
placed
on
marginalized
groups
in
the
United
States.
The
trio
aspires
to
provide
an
inclusive
space
for
the
audience
to
reflect
on
their
own
identity,
enabling
a
collective
conversation
in
an
effort
to
build
a
culture
of
acceptance
and
collaboration
without
the
fear
of
survival
or
assimilation.
Convergence Research is a collaboration between the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts (CWMCA) and the Blaffer Art Museum. It is a platform for experimentation and research for students and faculty of all disciplines in the McGovern College of the Arts with the goal of creating more opportunities for connection between the disciplines. Convergence Research supports interdisciplinary inquiry and techniques to stimulate creative process and cultivate works that are performative, temporary and in any stage of process.
