SAN FRANCISCO—Picture Bayview Hunters Point

IMAGE: Austin Forbord. [Two_third] Picture Bayview Hunters Point is an interdisciplinary, site-specific performance that focuses on the dreams and aspirations of local residents as the neighborhood undergoes a period of economic and demographic change. This project was conceived and directed by Joanna Haigood of Zaccho Dance Theatre in collaboration with video artist Mary Ellen Strom, composer Walter Kitundu, and digital media organization BAYCAT. The artists have documented local histories and the community’s vision through various methods including a call in line, community council, interviews, and historical archives. A panel discussion in October 2018 will discuss community history, activism, redevelopment, and future direction. The final performance will feature the collected stories and research using video, sound, and dance at the Bayview Opera House, October 11-21, 2018. [/Two_third]
