Machado Mijiga Presents: DoubleDash (featuring Dario LaPoma) 

Saturday, August 20, 2022

Doors: 6 pm
Event: 6:30 pm

Artist website: Machado Mijiga

Event website: To The River

About the Event:
Esteemed Portland musicians Machado Mijiga and Dario LaPoma join AUXART Saturday evening, August 20th, to inaugurate the public opening of To The River, a sculpture and sound art installation at Zidell Yards. As the configuration Double Dash, the percussion and keyboard virtuosos weave jazz-influenced electronics and percussion into soundscape explorations. For this special event, LaPoma will be playing an acoustic piano installed by Piano Push Play on the site’s magnificent promontory overlooking the Willamette River. The venue is a sculptural theater en plein air made from salvaged wood that accommodates a limited audience of 100.
 
About the Venue:
AUXART produces architectural scale sculpture works that serve as collaborative settings for music and sound adventures. The To The River is the result of a summer-long Residency that will play host to a half dozen musical performances through the end of September. The residency is focused on the way that the Willamette River and rivers in general connect us across geographies, time, and ideas about difference through shared networks of sustenance. The work is inspired by the many devotional ways that people go to the river to meet, to cleanse their souls, or to start anew.
