Toni Valle and George Heathco collaborate on a new multidisciplinary, cross disciplinary response to the sculpture “Witness” by artist Shahzia Sikander that explores the theme of justice and “traditional representations of power.” “Testimony: Seen and Heard” is an aerial dance performance/visual art installation created by various artists under the direction of Valle. The artistic team consists of composer/UH Moores alum George Heathco, costume designer/UH Dance alum Ashley Horn Nott, UH visual art student Shelby Craze, performed by Craze, Veronica Ordonez, Michelle Reyes, and Talia Saulsberry. “Testimony: Seen and Heard” premieres at the Blaffer Arts Museum courtyard on September 18, 2024 as part of a Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center Convergence Research Project.
