Rinse/Repeat

rinse-repeat- Ann Arbor Art Center Exhibition

RINSE/REPEAT

August 17 - September 15

 

 

When does action transcend habit to become something more meaningful?  RINSE/REPEAT explores concepts of ritual or routine in creative practice, where the experience is intentional, sacred - not solely focused on the product or outcome, but on the set of actions.

Juried by Marlee Grace, an improvisational dancer best known through her Instagram account, Personal Practice where she documents her daily movement practice.
