Fielding Calls
Octavio Campos and the 801 crew show their stuff.
By Carlos Suarez De Jesus
Published: March 6, 2008During Field Work sessions this winter, performance artist and choreographer Octavio Campos found himself treading in strange waters. “It was a really humbling experience for me. I think The Field is something every artist should go through,” he says. The Field’s 10-week workshops brought painters, dancers, performers, video artists, and photographers together to present new projects. At the end of each session, a facilitator led a discussion in which participants gave each other feedback. “It was intense,” Campos adds. During the sessions, Campos developed Cell, a kooky hybrid theater piece based on conceptual crank calls. “I was playing Russian roulette with my cell phone and randomly dialing numbers on my contacts list. I ended up calling American Airlines and booking a dozen first-class seats for a flight to Paris,” he laughs. “I couldn’t believe the tickets would cost $16,000.”
Tonight at 8 and tomorrow at 4 at 801 Projects, Camposition Studio and The Field/Miami are presenting Field Day, an informal revue of the works created by the group this winter. “It’s going to be a wild show,” Campos gushes. “We will have some deconstructed flamenco, a bunch of edgy performances, and even a stop-motion animation.” Suggested donation for the event is $8.01.
