Isabel Lewis
Scalable Skeletal Escalator
Scalable Skeletal Escalator is an experimental live art work at Kunsthalle Zürich, conceived by Isabel Lewis (Faculty Berlin '19), in the form of a holobiont, a multi-organismic assemblage, like the human body itself, shuddering and shaking into being.
The work moves through four levels of Löwenbräukunst, where Kunsthalle Zürich is located, questioning how might a dancer pause – or interrupt – the history of how we conceive of and live our embodiment?
