BLACK CADMIUM STUDIO PRESENTS
A private live performance
directed by E. C. Baugh
November 6 & 8 — Brooklyn, NY

You are invited into my private studio to experience the first live presentation of “As Within, So Without,” a multidisciplinary performance exploring creation, destruction, and rebirth through painting, sculpture, movement, and sound.
Two years in the making, this immersive work blurs the boundaries between art, movement, and sound. It is a living world built by hand and performed by its own creations.
This is an intimate, private event. Seating is limited..
The Cast
The performance features a remarkable ensemble of collaborators who embody the raw spirit of transformation:
Michael Buscemi — Known for his haunting subtlety and depth, he brings the presence of the creator undone, the silent architect of the world within the work.
Iris Ásmundar — Dancer and performer, channeling the pulse of rebirth through movement and rhythm. Her role blurs the line between sculpture and spirit, motion and stillness.
Babou Sanneh — The living echo of chaos and creation; both witness and catalyst. His presence binds the elements of clay, sound, and ritual into one breathing performance.
Together, they give body and breath to the unseen forces of creation, the soul of “As Within, So Without.”
