Have a seat on one of the many quilts that will be laid out in the main floor of The Church and join Emily Johnson as she weaves you into a movement- and sound-based performance that will envelop you in shared histories and experiences. A portal to a way forward through care and awareness, Johnson’s performance invites participants to redefine themselves within space-time, to join her in an act of “reworlding,” and to physically stitch together a work of art. Assisted by Korina Emmerich, Johnson invites audiences to contribute to the quilt squares, through stitching and/or adding their visions for the future.

A location-specific work, Johnson’s performance helps revitalize our integral connections to one another and awaken us to the threads that connect us via our environments, our stories, and our pasts, presents, and futures.  This performance is an artwork featured in Eternal Testament, our current exhibition curated by Jeremy Dennis and Meranda Roberts.

Though most participants will be seated on the ground on quilts provided, there will be chairs available for those who prefer or need them.
