This work is a reflection about Spanish moss plant, in which the eponymous plant is in its specific r elationship of interdependence with trees.
The binding of empathetic feeling moves towards the feeding, when the two parties mutually benefit of the primary nutrients, meant as knowledge as well as vital energy.T he roots of this work will run along a thought about the possibility of a dialogue between generations and dwell on the question of origins.
Alice Grassi and Ashley Wang have worked in collaboration. Spanish Moss a video by Grassi and Lost Touch With Oneself, music by Wang will be shown and performed at the same time. Music to be performed from the original score by the MIVOS quartet.
Made during the Artist in residence at A.C.A. Atlantic Centre for the arts, Master artist Jean Marc Bustamante, Florida. Made possible with funds granted from the Center and the Joan Mitchell Foundation.
