An Accidental Forever: Theo Pelmus & Kristin Snowbird

Spouses and creative partners Theo Pelmus and Kristin Snowbird immerse viewers in wondrous explorations of intimacy, land, spirituality, and resilience through their performance and digital artworks. An Accidental Forever encompasses several years of their individual and collaborative production.
Combining new media with cultural traditions, their artworks challenge the distinction between traditional forms and innovation. In their work, the artists reinvigorate pre-Christian dances, languages, clothing, and rituals from Pelmus' Romanian and Snowbird's Ojibwe/Cree heritage through emerging technologies.
An Accidental Forever includes new photographic light boxes that capture moments from their digitally integrated performance work. These luminous images respond to viewers' proximity, extending the ephemeral performance into a lasting, evolving encounter.
Their use of light from shimmering video projections and interactive illuminated photographs signals that, while addressing social harms, their intent is to provide hope and foster healing.
