Jody Sperling performs an iteration of “Plastic Harvest” in Earth Celebration’s Ecological City pageant at Seal Park, near the Fire Boat House/Lower East Side Ecology Center. The pageant is a colorful procession through 21 sites on the Lower East Side. Jody’s performance at Site 20 will begin at approximately 4:15pm. In this solo investigating plastic pollution, Sperling is radically transformed by costuming fashioned from hundreds of plastic bags. She appears as a plastic monster frolicking in the doomed park setting. Collected over months from family, friends, and neighbors, these plastic bags serve as a visual and kinetic archeology of our current moment. For the pageant’s closing ceremony, Sperling will also perform excerpts of “Elegy” with composer/cellist N. Scott Johnson.
