Germaine Liu and Mark Zurawinski
Germaine Liu (germaine.she.her.hers) and Mark Zurawinski (he/him) are long-term loving partners, life and art collaborators and makers. Together, and with the support of their friends and arts organizers, they have been fortunate to dream and create many joyous projects like And With (supported by The Bentway), a sound walk inviting participants to experience sounds and textures of The Bentway and We Made This With Love (supported by The Music Gallery), a candy-inspired two-part sharing (1. Sonic and visual exploratory film 2. sound/movement performance where performers become “NERDS/Nerds” a symbiosis of candy+state-of-being.) Germaine and Mark, along with their friend Joe Sorbara are co-founders of the Imaginary Percussion Ensemble where they play works like Water Music (sonic/physical/touch exploration with water + objects) and CeramiX (sonic/physical/touch exploration with ceramic objects made by Chiho Tokita). Germaine and Mark also love to garden and cook food. They are grateful to share art, life, food, nourishment, joys and grief with communities that they are fortunate to be in relationship with.
