ARCHIPELAGO is a new multidisciplinary work by critically-acclaimed performance artist Denise Uyehara in collaboration with award-winning visualist Adam Cooper-Terán. Through a nexus of video, monologue, music and ritual, Archipelago remixes ancient origin myths of Okinawa and the history of the Sonoran Desert’s Yaqui River Valley, situating them in contemporary times. Commissioned by the National Performance Network Creation Fund.
