Tangled: STAGE FOR ALL
A multimedia presentation incorporating memories, images, and ideas drawn to be developed and curated in close partnership with local residents in this tangled and evocative space.
The durational performance was centered around building a 32 foot circular stage from partly recycled materials. We offer this platform to the residents of Southwest Detroit. The stage is envisioned as an open space to celebrate and honor the culture, talent, and creativity of the community and is open for everybody to use.
This project was made possible by University of Michigan MCubed grant received by Paul Draus and Tzveta Kassabova, and was developed in partnership with Bridging Communities and Motor City Street Dance Academy.
The event is a part of Detroit Month of Design 2020.
