Physically diverse living human sculptures dressed in white. United Nations - Darial Sneed

Take part in ON DISPLAY a 'live human sculpture court' in celebration of the United Nations' International Day of Persons with Disabilities and part of a worldwide initiative ON DISPLAY GLOBAL

ON DISPLAY by Heidi Latsky Dance is a deconstructed art exhibit and commentary on the body as a spectacle and society’s obsession with body image.  It turns a diverse cast into a sculpture court of living statues.  This movement installation will involve focus, stillness, and structured improvisation.

We are looking for an all-inclusive cast:  All ages (18+), shapes, sizes, races, genders, including those with visible disabilities.  No previous formal training in this technique required.  

All training will take place in Manhattan. Performances will take place in Bronx/Queens/Manhattan (Must be able to provide your own transportation.)  

Performance opportunities: September 18, 2019 Noon (outdoor venue @ New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx), Mid-October in Manhattan, and December 3 in Bronx, Queens, and Manhattan.  The outdoor performance will be filmed to be part of a worldwide video-cast at the UN and all ON DISPLAY GLOBAL locations.
