Harris, an interdisciplinary artist, musician, and researcher, speaks about a selected artwork in relation to her own practice, materials, and conceptual concerns. This program takes place in the main building, located at 1533 Sul Ross Street. As always, Menil programs are free and open to all. Li(sa E.) Harris uses voice, theremin, electronics, movement, improvisation, meditation, and new media to explore healing in performance and living. The founder/creative director of the multidisciplinary creative arts studio Studio Enertia, Li is the recipient of numerous awards that include a 2022 Guggenheim Fellowship in Fine Arts and the 2021 Dorothea Tanning Award in Music/Sound from the Foundation for Contemporary Art.
