About the event
Reflect upon the Year of the Dragon in this exploratory performance in the Heritage Museum of Asian Art galleries. We will search for dragons in the galleries, in movement, in music, and in ourselves.
If the Sky Could Dream combines drawing, painting, dance, found materials and found spaces at the museum to reveal and celebrate the dragons among us—structural, ancestral, architectural, internal, and environmental. Because the dragon is a water deity in Chinese culture, this work also features projections of the waters of Chicago: Lake Michigan, the Chicago River, and the lakes, ponds, and lagoons of Chicago Parks.
This event is generously funded by the Gaylord & Dorothy Donnelley Foundation as part of the Dragon Within: Loong and Global Symbols event series. If the Sky Could Dream is supported, in part, by a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant.
