In Conversation with Lauren and Lee

KANEKO 1111 Jones St, Omaha, NE, United States

Our collaborative partnership with KVNO in regard to our creative thinking spaces at the Kaneko is one in which we highly value and hold in high regard. Through the Kaneko KVNO audience listeners get the opportunity to experience our one of a kind programming. For example what makes this conversational event so unique is the people leading the event. This is a an informal performance and conversation between choreographers Lauren Simpson and Galen Rogers and visual artist Lee Running. Lauren and Galen’s creative interests lie at the intersection of bodies and objects. We were drawn to Lee Running’s work because the objects she creates are often made from the material of the body, specifically the bodies and bones of deer that have been struck by vehicles. The skeletal structure of a deer and that of a full grown human are similar in dimension, shape, and weight. This offered a starting point for a collaboration. Through the careful and attentive practice of choreography, we hope to discover a new perspective on the sculptures, as well as open up a conversation about embodiment, violence, healing, and connection.
