The Central Atrium at Crosstown Concourse
Friday, July 28, 2023
Performance: 1-2 pm
Tickets: Free and open to the public

HerView: Sears Memphis depicts women’s labor in the 20th century department store and is based on locally sourced history.  Manos will ride on an original freight cart used in the Sears Memphis warehouse while typing on a vintage typewriter, and will hand routing slips to Crosstown Concourse visitors.  HerView is part of a larger project Manos is spearheading, Visualizing Women’s Work, which confronts gender bias in monuments and other historical markers through novel forms of publicly visible women’s history, including popup performances and webAR* animations.
*Augmented Reality via smartphone/device (no app required)
Manos is creating the performance while a 2023 Crosstown Arts Artist-in-Residence.
Memphis-based artist Karl Erickson also performs in a supporting role.
