Backbone

RAWdance’s Katerina Wong joined forces with Bay Area-based sculpture, installation, and social practice artist, Sawyer Rose, for her most recent exhibit, Counting the Hours.

Counting the Hours shines a light on the systemic and pervasive inequalities that working women face, including the physical, emotional, and practical effects of these disproportionate labor loads. Rose uses a unique combination of art and science to communicate her findings about women’s work. Her large-scale installation sculptures in Counting the Hours are built using real-life work data collected from female-identifying workers from all walks of life and from across the U.S.

Wong collaborated with Rose to create on a companion dance work inspired by Rose’s subjects, process, and visual artworks, which was performed amongst her sculptures at the exhibit’s opening reception at Code and Canvas in San Francisco.
