to print is to press. to press is to impose. but to imprint—leaving a mark—is not invariably a choice. power operates this way as it replicates, reinforces, and settles into repetition.


lithographs is a movement study and performance that situates the body as palimpsest—pressed, imprinted, in flux. engaging the conceptual framework of the lithographic process, the work studies how power inscribes itself across time, flesh, and gesture.


the piece engages a score of ungovernable remains. reciprocity not as balance, but as leakage, exchange, affective drift. it proposes the body not as a fixed form, but as a site always in negotiation—subject to pressure, to refusal, to becoming something else. this work inhabits the spaces where marks degrade and the distortion of power becomes a site of inquiry.


lithographs unfolds as a choreographic score—a recursive field of sensation, sound, and body. it questions what remains once the imposed has worn away. what forms in the blotting, the misprint? in a world of highly surveilled bodies that are increasingly rendered legible for control, lithographs aims to engage in opacity, in the fragmentation, on the potential held within disruption. it is not a resolution—it is an excavation.

With over 100 offerings from rebellious circus, delicious dance, fearless theatre and activist art to workshops, parties, and more Cannonball pushes the boundaries of live performance at four different venues this Fringe. Come as you are and stay past bedtime at cannonballfestival.org.

About the Artist

rece makes / finds / reckons with movement work on the unceded land of the Lenape people. currently based in philadelphia, he works in and between media, misfire, gesture, and flesh—a practice of leakage + looping + recording + listening that is held inside a poetics of refusal and possibility. trained in dance as a graduate of the university of the arts and now a student in bennington’s low-residency mfa in dance, yet the lineage is otherwise—in reverberations, in rupture, in echoforms--emphasizing knowledge as something produced in the margins. his research dwells in an inquiry of assembling meaning from the fragmentary and the discarded. through choreographic strategies that desire and resist closure—misfire, repetition, dissonance--he explores power as something to be diffused rather than grasped.
