| Description |
 Higby brings one of her popular performances to San Jose for the first time with a showing of her new production, In a Cloud of Glass. Bringing together sculptural costume, dance, and puppetry, In a Cloud of Glass explores the atmospheric world within the magical borders between death and life, and reflects Higbys recent travels to Myanmar and Thailand. The evening performance opens with the San Francisco Indonesian Dance Company Harsanari presenting traditional Indonesian dance. The performance includes a processional gamelan and accompaniment to Higbys performance by the award-winning Balinese orchestra Gamelan Anak Swarasanti. In a Cloud of Glass will be performed on Sunday, August 24 at 6pm next door to the Museum at 510 South First Street in downtown San Jose. Tickets are on sale now at http://sjquiltmuseum.org/calendar_august.html or by phone at 408.971.0323 x21 or by phone at 415.868.2409. Tickets are: $20 in advance with a $5 rebate at the door for members with membership card; $10 children; $25 at the door (if available).
In Javanese Moonlight is co-presented by the Consulate General of the Republic of Indonesia in
San Francisco, Indoarts and Harsanari, the San Francisco Indonesian Dance Company. said
Museum Curator Deborah Corsini. Like batik artists, whose work is deliberate and slownot
infrequently taking months or even years to produce one stunning length of clothHigby mines the
spiritual meaning in the physical discipline required to devote up to two years developing a complex
sculptural form. As stationary art objects and as moving sculpture in her performances, these forms are an
invitation to a meditative space, where time slows down and we find ourselves quietly contemplating
lifes mysteries.NOTE: No one under 6 years old will be admitted.
