SUMMARY:PUSH/PULL Exhibition Project
DESCRIPTION:PUSH/PULL is a transdisciplinary exhibition project featuring new works by aisha tida and Leila Mnekbi\, developed with the support of ARCOS Dance. The exhibition at Box13 ArtSpace invites visitors to experiment with notions of agency and collectivity while questioning the patterns\, loops\, and illusions that we wish to escape.\nA quilted structure by aisha tida envelops visitors in isolated overwhelm\, scored by Mnekbi’s discordant\, layered questioning in the multilingual sound experience Lines Lines On These Walls. These symbiotic works form the spatial sensory installation IN/OUT/THRU\, where visitors can slow down\, examine without judgment\, and sit with the weight they carry—not as an isolated burden\, but as a shared\, collective heaviness. Guided by an omniscient voice and surrounded by shifting sonic textures\, visitors are asked to be present in the chaos before engaging in collective commiserating and creative processing in the community-activated Aftercare Space.\nPUSH/PULL is further animated by a roster of public programming\, including an interactive opening night performance by ARCOS and skillsharing workshops oriented around materials featured in the exhibition.\nAt its core\, PUSH/PULL demonstrates the need for reflective pause and the exploration of the creative potential of togetherness. Its offerings serve as a reminder that even in fragmentation\, we are not alone.\nPUSH/PULL is on view in the Upstairs BOX Gallery at Box13 ArtSpace in Houston\, May 30 to June 28\, 2025\, open to the public Saturdays or by appointment. The PUSH/PULL Exhibition Project is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.

SUMMARY:PUSH/PULL :: Open Level Movement Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A 60-minute guided movement session for all bodies.

Comfortable clothing recommended.
