On Sea\/At Sea<\/em>\u00a0focuses on the sea as an unbounded, unfixed territory with no recognizable performance cartographies, asking the question \u2013 how often does performance go to sea? This is both a literal and poetic question, thus inquiring about specific nautical performances \u2018on the sea\u2019, as well as the poetic state of being \u2018at sea\u2019, that is, within a fluid, unfixed, or liquid condition. Does the need for survival in this place render artistic, performative expression as something superfluous and trivial? How can a performance culture be shaped by this liquid, ever-moving terrain? Is perhaps, the sea a place where performance is suspended momentarily? We are seldom actually ON the sea and being AT sea is a giving over to the elements, casting off from attachments and moorings.<\/p>\n
