The Flyby of Comets:
Ready to Board
The Flyby of Comets is a one-night-only art experience featuring the work of international artists living and working far away or disconnected from the places they called home.
Through the lens of an airport layover that never ends, The Flyby of Comets: Ready to Board explores themes of transition, patterns of migration, and what it means to be temporary. Ultimately, this live-performance and site-specific art installation is an exploration of the struggle and hope for a chosen and secure future.
Featuring experimental animation, interactive art, sculpture, live performance, and audio-visual experiences.
We welcome all visitors, travelers, and stowaways at our airport terminal named Tawanna Thai, located at 6236 Wilshire Blvd, Los Angeles. This ‘layover’ starts from 6 till 11 pm on Saturday, April 4, 2020.
