MASS MoCA Co-Presentation & Open Rehearsal Experience: Shamel Pitts | TRIBE / Marks of RED
Award-winning choreographer Shamel Pitts returns to MASS MoCA with an intimate look into the “making-of” his newest multidisciplinary performance artwork, Marks of RED, the fourth chapter of his RED series exploring Black embodiment, aliveness, and human connection.
A work of magical realism narrated by and featuring the viewpoints of six women, Marks of RED is an Afrofuturistic meditation on the “womb space,” divining the effect that memory has on our experiences, senses, bodies, reality, and imaginative possibilities. This multidisciplinary work includes scenic designs by Mimi Lien, video mapping projection by Lucca Del Carlo, lighting design by Sarai Frazier, and production by TRIBE arts collective.
The development of Marks of RED was made possible in part by NCCAkron. This program is supported in part by the Irene Hunter Fund for Dance at MASS MoCA in association with Jacob’s Pillow.
