Bas-Reliefs is a remarkable, complex multi-disciplinary collaboration inspired by the work of painter Betty Goodwin. It combines the talents of eleven extraordinary artists. Brought together by the award-winning Marie-Josée Chartier and performed by Chartier and Dan Wild, Bas-Reliefs is an ambitious and magical piece that reveals a space fraught with drama and contrasts as well as a universal inter-connectedness.
