“SNARE” Colette Urban

Location: Full Tilt Newfoundland, McIvers, NL

Time and Dates: indoor/outdoor exhibition/performance, August 30th, 2009

Description:

• The performance SNARE is approximately 15 minutes in length. The performer, Colette Urban is dressed in a sixties camouflage pant suit, hat, sunglasses and bug net. She stands on a high stone outcrop that towers over the audience. Urban is engaged in gathering sticks and stones found in the local area. She then bounces these items on the drum head surface. The activity slowly begins and builds as the action becomes more intense. This creates an erratic audio experience for the listener.
