DESCRIPTION:Lisa Alvarado is a visual artist and musician who often collabo
	rates with\ncomposer\, bassist\, and improviser Joshua Abrams and the band
	 Natural Information\nSociety. For Counterpublic\, the artists traced the 
	waterways that shape the\nregion—both above and below ground—and examined 
	historical maps showing how\ntheir courses have shifted across time.\n\nA 
	free-hanging painting inspired by rasquache\, a Chicanx aesthetic rooted i
	n the\neveryday\, hangs above the entrance to an industrial garage near th
	e Mississippi\nRiver. Inside\, viewers encounter structures composed of st
	itched-together\nfabrics and transparent pouches filled with water of diff
	erent colors\,\nreferencing the river. Alongside these structures\, bells 
	move to produce\ntrembling\, chiming sounds. Shapes were cut into existing
	 wooden boards that\nclose off the back of the space\, and colored acrylic
	 inserts let sunlight in to\ncreate an interaction of light and shadow.\n\
	nNatural Information Society will perform a durational set in situ amongst
	 Abrams\nand Alvarado’s sculptural work located at 101 Chouteau.\n\nMORE I
