IV castellanos & amanda hunt
IV Castellanos and Amanda Hunt are Brooklyn based artists that have performed extensively both solo and collaboratively. The work has been presented at the Queens Museum, Gibney Dance Center, Grace Exhibition Space, The Knockdown Center, Judson Church, PPL, and nationally in places like Highways Performance Space (L.A.), Inverse Performance Festival (Arkansas), and The Aha Festival (Santa Fe, NM). They have held residencies at Chez Bushwick, Anonymous Ensemble, and MARSH (St. Louis, MO). They are co-directors of Para\\el Performance Space in Brooklyn, NY. Hunt and Castellanos make multi-disciplinary work with sculptural objects in performance using concepts of labor and futility. Their work addresses the body as a tool/object, and attempts rigor, whether a success or failure, from and within the body.
