Material Deviance In Contemporary American Culture (MDICAC) is an immersive installation, dance performance, and communal ritual. It grapples with the complexity of living in an object based society where we define our identity through the objects we own. The performance interweaves the stories and physical histories of:
immigrants and refugees who carry their homes on their shoulders;
hoarders who compulsively accumulate anything and everything;
and America’s growing homeless population.
MDICAC includes dance, video, 3D mapping, installation, and the creation of an e-zine.
