Koepke will perform Emotional Tofu: Lewiston in front of his Emotional Tofu video works which are part of an ongoing series that were made alongside this exhibition. This new movement meditation investigates a multiplicity of masculinities, and is accompanied by a new essay by interdisciplinary artist Cody Cook-Parrott. 

Rivera Ríos will be activating their site-specific altarpiece currently on view and assembled on site. On Permanence acts as a transmitter, functioning as a site of connection to the land of Borikén, augmented and extended out beyond its geographic borders–just like its people in the diaspora. This ritual is a practice to embody the time and labor it takes to build a sense of “home” and belonging.
