Join us Sunday, March 1, 2026 at 2pm for the final performance of Serenades for Settling: Tending Ostreidae, a multimedia installation that questions human interaction within marine habitats created by Stephanie Rothenberg and Suzanne Thorpe. For this performance, Thorpe, a composer and electro-acoustic performer, will be joined by percussionist and acoustic ecologist Lisa Schonberg and vocalist Tiffany Du Mouchelle. Together they will perform their sonic sense of listening with oysters, a species that contends with escalating human disruptions as they listen for safe habitats in which to settle. The trio will improvisationally interact with the installation as moments of ecological balance, churn and possible human tending emerge, navigating the soundscape’s speculative aquatic environment.
