the life from inside is a choreographed live art work curated by Hope Cohn in response to American artist Frank Stella’s Scarlatti K sculpture series.  This newest piece by choreographer lauri stallings explores the intersection of stillness, connection, and longing as four individuals collaborate and interact closely, while inhabiting the space of Stella’s K.3 relief sculpture, bound by the act of weightlessness.

The gallery live piece is adapted from a roaming work, Singing Sun from December 2025, with a team of glo moving artists Mary Jane Pennington, Noëlle Dave’, and Ashley Ianna Daye. Atlanta pianist Choo Choo Hu accompanies on harpsichord, performing amidst Stella’s massive sculpture. 

How do we create the sensation of real space within and outside of the action of the sculpture,’ said stallings. A lot of conversations came up between curator Hope Cohn about being “in” K.3, and all the action that must happen for the body to be immersed. And that is the stuff we love the most, the process of time, total feeling,  and total experience. This connection is so important. Shifting elements that feel as if they could lift us in the air at any second. 

The life from inside will occur as a live art work in the gallery’s main floor on Sunday, Jan 25 at 7PM – 8:30PM. Doors open at 6:30PM.

Limited seating available.
