CORNOGRAPHY: call for participants
Small Pond Arts is seeking artists and community members to participate in CORNOGRAPHY, an artistic exploration of our twisted relationship with food. This public presentation will take place on the Small Pond Arts farm in Prince Edward County, Ontario, the afternoon of Sunday JULY 22, 2012.
We want your puppet shows, songs, stories, installations, spoken word, dances, artwork and other brilliant ideas! Contributions can be narrative or impressionistic, political or celebratory, critical or comedic, but should reflect the food issues that matter most to you, such as GMOs, farming, locavore living, organics, gardening, seed ownership, or society’s disengagement with the source of their food. Time-based contributions (eg: theatre/music/dance) should be 10-15 minutes in length. The audience will be guided from location to location (primarily outdoors) to discover a cornucopia of artistic expression on the theme of food.
Interested participants should email Krista at krista@smallpondarts.ca by JUNE 20, 2011 with a brief description of what you have in mind. Want to take part but don’t know what to do? Let us know and we will find a way for you to participate that suits your interests and skills.
Artist residencies available for out-of-town participants at a reduced rate; contact us for details.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch should you have any questions. We can’t wait to see what you have to bring to the table!
