Futurity by Mariana Valencia at River to River Festival 2021
June 25, 2021,
at The Arts Center at Governors Island

Mariana Valencia’s Futurity (2021) layers interpretive queerstories that converge in New York City and beyond. A performance with sunlight as its light source, Futurity carries with it the character of Star Baby, (a being who has skates for feet) who catches signals from her elders, the Star people. The Star people’s stories engage in the social history of the westside “village” of downtown NYC from the 1960s-present.
