The Movement Lab at Atlanta Art Week

 

T. Lang Dance creates poetic movement landscapes, illustrating deep and rousing investigations into interdisciplinary creative practices, historical narratives and identity.

Atlanta Art Week: September 30 - October 6, 2024

Atlanta Art Week celebrates the vibrant art scene in Atlanta every year and has grown since its inception three years ago. The festival of sorts utilizes many venues across the city to showcase the unique artistry and talent, often putting on big events or activations to help Atlantians experience what the art scene has to offer.


As part of our mission at Design Bloc we endeavor to raise the profile and celebrate the art and design scene in Atlanta and attended SITE at the GOAT Farm to observe the Movement Lab’s dance performance.

The performance centered around the story of Mary Turner’s tragic death triggered by a murder in a small town in Georgia. The performance featured vibrant imagery and intentional movement showcasing the deep connection between her and her late husband and their unborn child. The couple's story plays out through a series of acts, each increasing in intensity and desperation, culminating in a thoughtful, yet visceral depiction of grief and loss.

T. Lang dance did a wonderful job, and we will explore more partnership opportunities with them in the future. T. Lang is a wonderful group and gives moving performances and more information about this specific performance can be found here.

Stay tuned as we bring more news and events from around the Atlanta design and art scene.
