Yarn/Wire

The 2026 Yarn/Wire Institute is a wrap!
What a fantastic week with our 2026 participants: .duo Tac2us Catalizador and Tran + Maelstrom

It was incredible to witness how much each project developed over the course of the week, the amount of growth, refinement and discovery between the first presentations and the final performances was so impressive and our minds were blown away by each participant’s curiosity, commitment and creativity.

We’re so excited to welcome these groups into the Yarn/Wire Institute alumni community and can’t wait to see where their work takes them next!

Huge thanks to .nyc for hosting and supporting the Institute, and special thanks to and for the administrative and technical support throughout the week!

Thanks to everyone who joined us for Currents 12 at the and at last week! This edition of the series was co-commissioned by the Moers Festival and featured new works by Jonah Haven and Bergrún Snæbjörnsdóttir.

Jonah entrusted us with a deeply personal work inspired by the poetry of Mary Oliver, Bergrun made us into a superorganism (particularly effective in this resonant church, see slide 3!!) thank you both for your generosity and imagination in creating these new pieces for us ✨

If you weren’t able to attend, the archival livestream is available online the website.

Next week we unleash ‘s SUPRASEETHER at the , then we bring it to on May 28th as part of Currents 12!

Program notes below, 🔊ON for slide 2!

SUPRASEETHER explores the interplay between performers and their environment as they are dissolved into a shared, teeming field of awareness. Feelers extended, wanting to be limbs unfurled - the quartet as organism, sensing at the edges of its conditions. The sound becomes a field of perception, a body that listens as it negotiates with itself to breach their boundaries, shaped through contact, pressure and proximity. The material slipping away as it emerges, heeding a call towards impending fission.
