As part of Across this really tall field again in the dark, artist Phoebe Osborne invites you to meet them at A.I.R. Gallery on September 22, 2022 at 6 PM for a silent walk together.

The walk will begin and end at A.I.R. Gallery, however where we go in between is undetermined. The walk is planned to be about 90 minutes.

Following the walk, there is an optional invitation to sit together on the roof patio to discuss our observations and experiences from the walk. There will be tea to drink and some clay to play with for this section of the evening. This simple proposal intends to explore registers of listening and sensing together while, at least for some time, putting language aside.

Please RSVP and come wearing comfortable attire for walking with consideration of the weather, as we will be mostly outside in the evening time. This walk is open to people of various needs and capacities. Phoebe welcomes any questions, concerns, or needs supporting participation.

This event is free.

In recent years, 2021–2022 A.I.R. Fellow Phoebe Osborne has generated distinctive works that follow the incommensurable currents of transing and the care it generates. As the latest outcome of this practice, Across this really tall field again in the dark brings drawing, lip syncing, and vibratory residue to act as storytellers, gathering seemingly fragmented details and lacing them together as a stealth walk in the night. Osborne holds an MFA in Visual Arts from Columbia University and an MA in Choreography from DAS Graduate School at the Amsterdam University of Arts. Osborne’s works have been presented at venues including Transmediale Berlin, Bar Laika by e-flux, Southern Exposure, and The Boiler | Pierogi Gallery, and have been commissioned by SFMoMA, Oakland Museum of California, and Lenfest Center for the Arts, among others.
