Beyond This Point / Greg David
$10-$20 sliding scale
Chicago-based Beyond This Point is a percussion-focused collaborative ensemble that aims to engage diverse audiences through intersections across artistic mediums, presenting programs that synthesize musical performance with theater, movement, media/film, sculpture, social justice, and environmentalism, among others. Using everything from amplified matchsticks, to rice-spilling pendulums, to reclaimed pieces of wood triggering 5000 LEDs, Beyond This Point has a drive to create a truly interdisciplinary performance practice, believing that a mix of media and art forms can speak more directly and powerfully to our current context. For their set at Rhizome, Beyond This Point will bring knives, hammers, an IKEA desk lamp, a webcam, 6 guitar pedals, and exactly one pair of drumsticks.
Greg David is a movement artist based in the DMV area. Exploring themes of grief, fear, care and solitude, the work and movement they enjoy making goes hand in hand with human emotion and experience and aims to capture that essence in motion. David joined Culture Shock® Washington DC in 2012 and became the artistic director for their 2015 and 2016 seasons where, nationally and internationally, they presented stage works and taught workshops. In 2022 they presented work at the District Choreographers' Dance Festival and the BlackLight Summit.
