'Sky Knot'

Water is a unique substance that transcends elements, movement, time. There is an immense power in something so ever-present, so beyond, so entirely magical. It is both holy and political, can kill a civilization, can strip a community, can deem holiness, can define borders, can nourish, can spill.

Sky Knot is a multimedia experience exploring three different artist’s navigations around water. This piece speaks on the DNA of water and its capability to fill the contents of a body as well as universal connection of fluidity, movement, transformative states from one place to another-ephemeral moments of baptism.

In celebration of Arts Month 2022, the Garfield Gallery will present Sky Knot, a performance and art installation by Conor Bourgal, Jasmine Dillavou, and Matte Refic on Friday, October 14. Installation open 5-8 p.m. with a performance at 6 p.m.

Guests are encouraged to spend time meditating on their experiences through, with, without, alongside and inside water. This work is made in celebration of Arts Month 2022 alongside the Garfield Gallery in hopes of inspiring the community to gather and dream collectively.
