NOVEMBER 16, 2024

Doors open 7pm  |  Performance at 8pm

$5-$15 tickets at the door

 

The avant-guard fashion outlet Mad Recital debuts their Spring/Summer 2025 collection with a haunting new fashion show and collaborative evening at The Space Upstairs featuring performance and sound accompaniment by slowdanger (long-time Resident Artists of The Space Upstairs). No strangers to working together, Mad Recital has designed original garments for many of slowdanger’s performance works. For this presentation, they take over the Pittsburgh warehouse loft known as the Space Upstairs to unveil their new collection 

 

Alongside the fashion show, the evening will include a sound and movement performance by slowdanger. Directors Anna Thompson and Taylor Knight will perform a practice they call untitled still life. This performance is a physical and sonic performance that fuses their interests in noise and ambient sound, dreams, mythology and the unknown, to create a surreal world for audiences to enter. “The work examines our bodies ontological and somatic communication with vibration, texture, physical labor, absurdity, character and tertiary energies.” - Taylor Knight / Anna Thomson
