Join Chico MacMurtrie (2024 Awardee) for an in-progress viewing of his Creative Capital project Dual Pneuma! A soft-robotic performer that evokes a humanoid body, Dual Pneuma can assume a wide range of human, animal, and insect-like positions. MacMurtrie is also developing a series of ceramic works cast from the soft figure. Compressed air channeled through the ceramic sculpture will produce whistling sounds, referencing the water and wind-based huaco instruments of early Mesoamerican cultures.
