EXPERIMENT AND DOCUMENTATION
Augustine is a combination of dance, performance, film, and photography that journeys through the eight stages of demonic possession - "Infestation, "Vexation I-III," "Obsession," "Possession," "Exorcism," and "Exorcised" - evoking Jean-Martin Charcot's 1870s photographs of Louise “Augustine” Gleizes, the infamous sixteen-year-old hysteria patient at the Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris.
Choreographed and performed by Maclaine Lowery and captured and edited by Peter McCain, Augustine is an ode to the medical celebrity's enduring imagery.
