Nothing But Love: Creative Process & Catharsis

Join us for this moderated discussion with the Arsht Center's Artist in Residence, Pioneer Winter, and a panel of artists spanning the creative fields of dance, drag, fashion and theatre. They will share how their own creative practice has brought catharsis or release, as well as how they explore and approach resilience and self-love in their work.

Guest Panelists: Josue Garcia (Karla Croqueta), Rosie Herrera, Petagay Letren, and Chaplin Tyler

Pioneer Winter is the Arsht Center's Artist in Residence, commissioned to create a new work titled Birds of Paradise. Birds of Paradise is a dance-theater work directed by Winter, enacted as a 'tropical militia' of queer-identifying artists. Motivated by the forced anonymity of queer resistance, it rejects an abridged gay history that memorializes efforts to some and erases others. Birds of Paradise seeks out new mythology to gain control over both the story and rhythm by which we march- or fly. Birds of Paradise premieres at the Arsht Center September 2021.
