BELOW THE SURFACE: Percussion & Light Art Performance

By Farida Hughes & Matt Keown

February 1

The immersive, hour-long performance of percussion music and responsive light-box art that is “Below the Surface” combines the creativity of Farida Hughes and Matt Keown.

Sixteen perforated paper drawings made by Hughes on a lava field in Hawai’i show visible tracings of the paths of arrested volcanic activity.

Doors Open at 7p.m , Concert starts at 7:30p.m
