Sha Sha Higby to Perform April 4
Through sculptural costume, dance and puppetry Higby explores the borders between death and life. She is known for her evocative and haunting performances with elements of Asian and Western traditions. Higby creates rich costumes she meticulously forms from wood, paper, silk, lacquer, ceramics and gold leaf. In her performances she inhabits her sculptures and brings them to life through subtle dance movements. Higby has studied dance and craft making in Asia for many years. On her first Fulbright Scholarship she spent a year in Japan and five years in Indonesia and on her second Fulbright Scholarship and an Indo-American fellowship she traveled to India. Higby, of Bolinas, Calif., has performed and taught throughout the United States, Asia, Australia and Europe. General admission to The Yellow Cup is $3; students and seniors are $2.
