SARA DITTRICH: THE TENDER INTERVAL
Baltimore-based Sara Dittrich’s The Tender Interval launches online on Wednesday, September 23, broadcast live via Twitch.tv from 12 – 2 pm CT. Download the companion Meditation Guide here.
Sara Dittrich’s The Tender Interval creates a meditative experience that encourages the audience to slow down, engage in sensory perception, and find poetic refuge in moments of crisis. This newly commissioned series of multi-sensory experiences uses the body’s circulatory system as a means of fielding questions about close listening and ecological healing. Through her work, Dittrich engages in repetitive gestures, video, and sculpture to focus on the body’s circadian rhythms using biosensors as performative objects to track heartbeats and footsteps. The Tender Interval offers participants (and viewers) an opportunity to slow down and meditate on how the pace of our bodies’ physical processes are often determined by our surroundings.
