Join us in celebrating the 2024 Student Art Festival: Eco vs Ego with a pop-up performance at 3 PM by artist, Viv Corringham and Springs School 5th Grade! A post-performance reception will be hosted by the Springs School PTA.
Over a sequential three-year project, Springs School students worked alongside sound artist & composer, Viv Corringham, to develop an ecological listening awareness and explore the capabilities of the human voice. Using Deep Listening methodologies, field recording exercises, and experimental voice practices, Corringham and the Students have developed an “Eco Choir.” In this performance, the Eco Choir will present an improvised performance to the English folk tale, The Buried Moon.
