A Clay Vessel: Little Amal
2023-10-10 14:00 - 15:00
Little Amal, a giant puppet representing a young Syrian girl and through her all the displaced children in the world. Her remarkable gifts in The Walk seek to provide an artistic answer to our troubled times: a cultural odyssey that transcends borders, politics, language.
A Clay Vessel is glo’s outdoor, multi-scalar work of movement, sound, and nature elements, a care procession starring HAES children, glo, and Little Amal. Our language of movement lives in the richness of everyday discourse and humanity, and the ways that people talk about themselves, and what matters to them. One very good way to do this is to listen to stories, then move with them.

In Spring 2020, glo and the Dewberry Foundation transformed Midtown Atlanta’s dormant lot into a 2.5 acre wildflower prairie.The glo platform’s approach to Land Art is the same as our choreographic thinking- a hybridity of forms emphasizing interconnectedness, solidarity networks, and art making as a care system.

Ongoing Actions, a series of drafted movements that translate the rhythms of researching old St. Mark AME Church into formations of live sculpture, movement choirs and complex patterns which flow, act, move, spiral, and murmur.

People Movement SHOP at the High
2024-04-17 10:00 - 12:00
People Movement Shops
feel together by moving together
People Movement Shops are a space of experimentation where we aim to feel together by moving together. We will delve into small and big acts, available to us so much, to explore textures and sounds in the environment of the space , and most importantly deeper connections between us. What do you carry that carries you? How do we tap into our bodies’ ability to generate love and understanding? With these ephemeral actions, the participants collectively built a new environment—an ideal city generated from the movement of participants.
3rd Wednesdays of the month beginning April 17
10am-noon
High Museum of Art
free and public to all
Most of the workshops will be held inside the museum that is surrounded by various sculptures and trees, allowing for different qualities of light to filter into the environment as the workshop progresses. Workshops will be informed often by the light, noting the ways in which it interplays with the textures and atmospheres of the space.
These workshops are a sharing of systems which inform glo platforms recent live art/ works as well as research connected to the practice of glo founder social practice choreographer lauri stallings amidst offerings of reimagination. stallings tends to focus on “mapping,” referring to our constantly unfolding world that resists finality.
Come with pleasure and excitement in a space built for free experimentation and joyous movement research!
Shops are for everyone no previous experience required/ the shops are free.
