Performer/Poet
Performance designed and conceptualized by artist Elizabeth Tobias.
“Elizabeth Tobias will amplify her fusion of social practice, performance and sound to debut Survivor! Share your 98 Second Story at 2019 The Los Angeles Art Show. This immersive project addresses the sexual assault epidemic, one of the most pervasive, yet most underreported crimes. Survivor! addresses the staggering statistic that every 98 seconds, there is a sexual assault in America.
Weaving together spoken word and improvised sound, Elizabeth Tobias will perform with an ensemble of artist survivors to collectively promote needed awareness and advocacy for sexual assault survivors in the art community and throughout the public sphere.”
This was an incredible group healing experience with amazing people who stood strong and let their voices be heard! This performance was part of the LA Art Show for DiverseLA in 2019.
