Untitled (rain scene) is a one-night outdoor performative work by Miami-based artist Alan Gutierrez. Positioned within an environment of production equipment and a special effects crew, the artist will situate himself within a non-narrative and non-linear vignette, open to both a public and pedestrian audience.
Interested in modalities of production which reveal the intersection of reality and theatricality, Gutierrez will create an open "set," resembling similarly to a movie set. The technical production attempts to immerse the audience in an effort- a required effort which will dictate the content, as opposed to the inverse, employing downtown Miami as the backdrop.
