Parsing the Ocean Veil
Parsing the Ocean Veil is a performance linking ocean pollution to climate change. Created by artists Kim Yantis and Lucinda Linderman of Suiting-Up for the Future Arts Collective, with collaborating artist Dito Sudito, the project addresses the environmental issues and impacts of garbage gyres in the ocean. The artists present a pair of embodied Ocean characters, who navigate the exterior and interior of the gallery while transplanting plastic waste during their performance.
Suiting-Up for the Future Arts Collective artists Yantis and Linderman create demonstration pieces, allegorical wearable artworks, performances and workshops that have the ability to bridge the gap between the practice of scientists and the everyday habits of humans. Their practice centers around the rescue, transformation, and impact of industrial and post-consumer packaging, cloth, and plastics on our environment.
