Chronicle X at The Shed, NY produced in association with HERE Arts Center and Musical Theatre Factory By Nia O. Witherspoon Co-Directed by Mei Ann Teo & Nia O. Witherspoon
June 3-4 2021
Chronicle X is the first work in The Dark Girl Chronicles, a ritual-play cycle designed to crystallize in the collective memory the stories of Black women warriors against state violence. Chronicle X is Black feminist church.
My Experience:
Part of the XR Team headed by XR Producer Brandon Powers and XR Director Espii Proctor.
I was hired as the XR Artist (Tiltbrush Artist) to design spatial work for the Augmented Reality portion onboarding process of the play. Within the Augmented Reality portion of the project, 3 doors or portals were created as part of the onboarding process. To access the AR, you were required to scan a QR code.
Each of the portals represented symbolic images pertaining to the theme of the story.
I painted: A TREE, Jellyfish, a galaxy and many words and phrases.
