Efrén Adkins and Colleen Allen, with performative assistance from José Hernandez, transformed two opera boxes into our grand finale’s immersive and haunting Death Altar, filling the space with colored lights, comic panel prayer flags, flowers, feathers, bones, mirrors and paper, and wordlessly inviting the audience to draw on everything; these materials were later burned to complete the ritual of release and remembrance at Brain Frame 19 on August 9th, 2014.
