Take part in a public performance by featured artist Pia Camil

Tuesday, Feb. 20, 2018

Savannah, GA

Forsyth Park

Between Drayton and Whitaker streets


Join the SCAD Museum of Art for a public performance by artist Pia Camil featuring her most recent, monumental work "Fade Into Black." Specially commissioned by the SCAD Museum of Art, this installation is the latest and largest iteration of her ongoing interest in T-shirts as repositories of cultural information. The artwork is one colossal mass made of more than 1,000 repurposed T-shirts stitched together where it hangs from the ceiling as a soft sculptural work.

Camil will lead a public, participatory performance in Forsyth Park to kick off SCAD deFINE ART 2018, in which onlookers and volunteers will collectively wear the garment, generating a moment of togetherness. Accompanied by the SCAD Drumline, the walk provides a unique opportunity to be part of an artistic performance that celebrates diversity.

This performance is free and open to the public.

This performance is part of SCAD deFINE ART 2018, held Feb. 20–23 at university locations in Savannah and Atlanta, Georgia, and Hong Kong. SCAD deFINE ART is an annual program of exhibitions, lectures, performances and public events that highlights emerging and established artists and visionaries.
