X: a Performance considers the significance of the letter X. From chromosome X to a time marker and void filler, Gabriela Ruiz explores the multiple uses and varying definitions of X. Ruiz works with multiple mediums including sound, film, sculpture, and installation. Her live performances use surprise, surrealism and elaborate installations to create rich visceral environments that contemplate emotion and meaning within culture and identity.
