November saw the premiere of the series with Yokko's "EDGED" a site-specific group butoh performance both in Times Square and at Grace & St. Paul's Church reflecting on issues of immigration, borders, and identity. On December 13, Byron Hagan performed his piece "LOSS" a meditation on victims of gun violence, by sitting in Union Square and encouraging passers-by to write the names of loved ones lost to gun violence on his body. Below are photos from both events.
