About This Event
At Park Avenue Armory, Céleste Boursier-Mougenot presents his water-and-sound installation clinamen. The program also includes the group clinamen, which works in a "free" performance mode that treats the Armory as a system in motion rather than a fixed stage, letting small shifts accumulate into structure.
About clinamen
Salnitrum
At Park Avenue Armory, the group clinamen stages a “free” performance that treats the building less as a proscenium than as a moving system. Actions are set in motion, then allowed to drift, collide, and re-form as small deviations accumulate into structure. The title nods to the ancient idea of a tiny swerve that makes contingency—and choice—possible, a useful frame for work built from instability. In New York, that approach reads as a quiet argument for attention over control, in a venue defined by scale and order.
