Inside the Day was Night
2017. Performance, photographs, video.



Inside the Day was Night is a site-specific time-based project developed by Liljana Mead Martin and Caitlin Chaisson on the occasion of the 2017 solar eclipse. Using the eclipse as an opportunity to consider the tenacious choreography between the sun and the moon, the passing of two bodies, and the pull of cosmic forces on terrestrial life, the artists took part in a four-day series of improvisational actions on Salt Spring Island | Occupied and unceded Coast Salish territory (Tsawout, Tsartlip, Pauquachin, Tseycum).This project was presented by Far Afield with support from the Canada Council for the Arts.
