“Hope is a Hammer” was an interdisciplinary collaborative performance directed and produced by Sharon Chohi Kim and Elana Mann. Through immersive sound, sculpture, text, and movement, “Hope is a Hammer” confronts the silencing of women's voices and the struggle for body sovereignty, and offers strategies for collective empowerment. The performance included music by Sharon Chohi Kim and Corey Fogel, text by Carol Ockman, choreography by Stephanie Zaletel, sculpture and set design by Elana Mann, and costume design by Jill Spector. Kim and Fogel activated Mann’s sonic sculptures through voice and percussion, along with a group of eleven musicians.
