EXHIBITION: SHEDDING LIGHT ON THE SELF AND THE COLLECTIVE

From September 9 - 24, 2024, JenMarie worked in Greece as the artist-in-residence at the Greenbridge gallery.

During the residency, JenMarie presented a comprehensive exhibition of photography, video, dance, and mindfulness.

The residency statement discusses how each of JenMarie's artistic forms work together and engage in conversation with one another.

In addition to the exhibition, JenMarie taught a series of workshops in collaboration with local yoga instructor Nena Georgitsi. The workshops explore the intersection of creativity, mindfulness, and movement.

JenMarie's residency also debuted a new dance performance alongside the percussionist Lefteris Aggouridakis. The performance responds to the Greek city of Trikala where the residency is located. The city is named in tribute to Trikke, the daughter of Peneus river god in ancient Greek mythology. JenMarie's dance focuses on the concept of fresh water—a resource to be filled, emptied, shared, and flowing to and from outlets—to connect the site of Trikala to an Afro-Brazilian dance tradition honoring Oxum, the Candomblé deity of water and love.

Last but not least - JenMarie was in Greece on her birthday; she DJ’d at a local club to celebrate!
