Current work...Asterion

Asterion is being realized as a research project with designer Jerrard Smith as principal researcher and is funded through SSHRC and the generosity of private sponsors.

In his text for Asterion, composer R. Murray Schafer has created the blueprints for a particularly unusual and challenging work, describing a series of forty-five events each with its own unique environment. Both the form and content of the work are that of the labyrinth. The work lives at the intersection of theatre, architecture, and installation art and is intended as a transformative journey through a series of intertwining passages and rooms to be experienced by one person at a time. In Patria, the labyrinth stands as a metaphor for the search for personal and cultural identity and Asterion is intended to make that search manifest.
