LabBodies is a performance art laboratory based in Baltimore Maryland that provides a format for artists working in the arena of performance art to exhibit their work, with the primary values of collaboration, experimentation, and interaction, LabBodies developed three programming categories: Lab Nights, Pop Labs, and Lab Commissions. Lab Nights are platforms for performance artists to share their work in an “open-stage” format where artists are encouraged to come and present their work and gain feedback from the audience. Pop Labs are performance events curated in public spaces that we engage with every day, ranging from coffee shops to empty store fronts that were once flower shops. Pop Labs are a way to produce new energy for everyday spaces in dynamic and interactive ways. LabBodies has been commissioned by Artscape (2015), The Baltimore Museum of Art (2014), Bromo Arts District (2014) and Transmodern Performance Festival (2014) to create ephemeral happenings that engages audiences with our signature interactive time-based works. The Vision of LabBodies is to establish Baltimore as a location where regional, national and international performance artists live and work through: ongoing series of performance art events, performance artist residencies and a new series of performance art festivals. To date, LabBodies has showcased over 100 local, regional, national and international performance artists. The Laboratory was founded in 2014 and is under the direction of Dr. H. Corona and Dr. A.
