⇢ #19 | Maggie Segale dances SWEAT SHAME ETC., 2018, 29 drawings by Cally Spooner

Cally Spooner offers a film of Maggie Segal dancing her drawings during a rehearsal of what happened at the Swiss Institute in New York in 2018.

She graduated university with a degree in philosophy. In her pieces, Spooner grants much importance to writing, which she translates into visual and vocal vocabulary. Through body and movement, she gives life to words, thus encouraging the static spectator to act.

Her works were exhibited at Whitechapel Gallery, Londres (2017) ; New Museum, New York (2016) ; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (2016) ; Vleeshal, Middleburg (2015).
