Description:
Virginia Tech presents Salt Marsh Suite with a Dance Performance and Talk and Discussion on Sunday, April 27th in The Cube located within the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech.

Organized in five movements, Salt Marsh Suite is an original video/sound installation and performance. Based on field observation, 3D laser scanning, imagery and sound recordings collected in a North Carolina coastal estuary, the piece connects art and science, weaving the lines between the lives of the marsh animals and plants and the strong environmental (and human) forces that shape their existence. Salt Marsh Suite is a collaborative work by a group of faculty and regional artists.

Following the dance performance, Dr. Catherine Gatenby and Virginia Fisheries Coordinator Albert Spells of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will join a panel of artists and scientists from Virginia Tech for a discussion and talkback.

The event is open to the public and admission is free however tickets are required and may be reserved in advance.

For tickets, contact the Moss Arts Center box office by phone at 540-231-5300, online at http://www.artscenter.vt.edu or in person from 12-6 pm on Monday-Friday or 11 am – 4 pm on Saturday.

Salt Marsh Suite is in the Cube, a state-of-the-art facility for experimental work connecting the arts and technology located in the Moss Arts Center at Virginia Tech. This event is sponsored by the Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology (ICAT) with support from the School of Performing Arts and the School of Visual Arts.
