Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles partners with CalArts Center for New Performance to present a one-night-only performance of ‘HA-M-LET,’ the latest project from Brazilian American multidisciplinary artist and CalArts alumni Peter Mark.
‘HA-M-LET’ is a multilingual, multimedia performance housed within a projection cube. Themes of madness, deceit and familial conflict take digital form as artist and performer Peter Mark grapples with tumbling thoughts and images that reach a vivid state of saturation. With materials sourced from Shakespeare’s play, internet culture, home videos and 3D animation, the interwoven imagery morphs between landscape and body, narrative and biography—shifting at a rate that pays homage to Hamlet’s own velocity of thought. The artist’s Brazilian parents appear in the roles of King, Queen and Ghost, rendering a conflict both textual and real—simultaneously liberated and confined by layers of media.
‘HA-M-LET’ is performed in Portuguese and English.
