THE TANK
- Produced by CreArtBox
"Perennial" is a performative installation and visual concert by Sarah K Williams and CreArtBox. Merging sculpture, video, and gestural movement, the project explores the complexities of human psychological and social defense mechanisms in relation to the natural world. Can survival strategies in plants help us better understand the defense mechanisms of the people around us? How do plants adapt to changing environments to become more resilient, persevering year after year? What can these mechanisms and adaptations teach us about human connection, survival, flexibility, and our own potential for perennial growth? Brought to life through a selection of classical and contemporary music by Stravinsky, Jessie Montgomery, and Andrea Casarrubios, the resulting work will be a two-night run of a 90-minute piece featuring five musicians, four performers, and an installation of original sculpture and video.

Fragile form is a 3 part "visual concert", a type of performance that most defines the identity of CreArtBox. Visual art and theatrical design techniques enhance the audience's listening experience of classical and contemporary music while respecting the original musical composition. The music serves as the creative anchor of the performance while the visual component builds the dramaturgy arch that unifies the performance into a single piece of art.

Architecture of a common man is an opera-ballet-film performance that follows the journey of a world-recognized photographer working on a documentary about his own life, aiming to teach others how to be successful. While creating this documentary, he unveils a fascinating retrospective of his life. Analyzing his relationship with work, family, health, and spirituality. Eventually discovering parts of himself that were buried in his professional ambitions. The main character is split into three performers, an actor on the screen plus 2 alter egos on the stage (a contemporary dancer and an opera baritone). The music is originally written for soprano, baritone, string quartet, piano, synthesizer, and choir. This piece explores how society encourages us to be exceptional, great, perfect, successful, or unique, exploring the true meaning of success and how someone can find happiness in life by just being a common man.
