For The Weary
For The Weary: an improvisational live score
Description of Project:
‘For The Weary’ was a piece I created for ISSUE Project Room’s final show of the 2023 season featuring Mary Margaret O’Hara and collaborator Jim White at First Unitarian Congregational Society in Brooklyn.
From ISSUE:
Interdisciplinary artist, performer, and 2019 Artist-In-Residence Rena Anakwe performs a new piece entitled “For The Weary.”
Rena Anakwe will perform "For the Weary,” an improvisational live score featuring field recordings, cassette tape, voice, tank drum and synth textures. In Anakwe’s words, “It's my ode to those who are craving ease and gentleness which at times feels inaccessible due to the speed at which things are moving around us. A sonic articulation of fatigue and repose, the balance through the chaos.”
