PROJECT <\/b>\/\/ Avatar (2019)<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

For their summer residency, Francesca Chudnoff and Justin de Luna will embark on their expansion of their research that they initially began in the fall of 2017. Their previous research period was propelled by the power of hot pop music and the materiality of two long, bright-coloured wigs. Their process starting off as an embodiment of the wigs, then quickly evolving into the conundrum of the wigs wearing them; offering potential for disguise, a talisman to transcend something beyond themselves. This process made way into their exploration on the being and becoming of an icon. This becomes their point of departure for their upcoming research period at Studio 303. Fascinated by the idea of internet performance, they plan to use online avatars and other modes of cyber self-representation as they search for a feeling of their inner icon (iCon?).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n
