    About This Event

    Céleste Boursier-Mougenot works at the intersection of sound and water, creating installations in which moving water acts as both source and modifier of sound. At the Park Avenue Armory his piece clinamen is presented as a live, free performance in an immersive environment where gently moving water and harmonizing tones shape the listening experience and encourage movement through the work.

    About clinamen

    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.
