Elena Katsulis & Erin Peisert (US) are a Chicago-based duo who focus on visual media and performance. Their action-based work relies on their interdependent relationship and the commitment of the audience. These interactions may be durational, may be site-specific, they may test endurance through repetition, and often transform materials through the passing of time. By performing in tandem they acknowledge experience as validated through the company of others.
Inspired by injury and it’s limiting effects, “With a Dresser and Thread” explores the dual nature of the body as both fragile and resilient. We endure contrasting conditions while functioning in a symbiotic way, reliant on each other to progress and transform from within and outside of what contains us.
