Slow Motion Cumbia: Stages (I) is a syncretic, adaptable work in process, moving from haunted reckoning to creation amidst crisis. Based on new music from Maia Macdonald.

Maia Macdonald (b.1983) is an interdisciplinary artist, musician, and producer living in Brooklyn, NY. Grounded in sound, her work explores the tension between the seen and unseen, tracing concentric circles through iterative projects across mediums. Maia has spent the past five years creating her upcoming album, Slow Motion Cumbia: Stages (I), a collaboration with director Krystine Summers, is a long awaited theatrical exploration of its themes.
