The mf team is gearing up to bring some much needed joyful ambiance to the Harvard Ed Portal this Fall. FREQUENCIES is a crowdsourced audio/visual mural that features the sounds and sights of Allston-Brighton, straight from the people who live, work, and play in this vibrant Boston neighborhood. Maria will be collaborating with visual artist, Allison Tanenhaus on this nightly pulsating performance that will run from November 2021 - February 2022.

I’ve been following Allison’s hypnotic glitch art for years. While the global pandemic has shifted my flow (in so many ways!), it has also created some space to reach out to other artists and potential collaborators I admire.

Harsh is Truth came to life via the Arts on the Trails to Freedom initiative by the National Parks Service in collaboration with the New England Foundation for the Arts. The Old South Meeting House immediately spoke to me for many reasons: a beautiful blank white canvas (wall!) accented by flowing architectural features, a rich and important narrative in our revolutionary history, and swell acoustics.

Months after the premiere of our ambitious "Know No." production, I continue to brainstorm/scheme/hustle to find a way to present the piece again. Months of work and creation went by so quickly in its three night run at the beautiful Cyclorama.
