MORE OR LESS CONCRETE (2012)
More or Less Concrete imagines bodies as containers and instruments. Through the act of listening these bodies produce 'audible movements' as they pass through cyclical patterns, transcend thought and embody meditative states.
They evolve and transform between
human
animal
monster
machine
other
The choreography is suspended between recognisable ‘concrete’ realities and ambiguous or surrealistic states.
Meanwhile the colour blue shadows the work. Blue creates space where receding and ephemeral qualities contrast the harshness of the physical.
More or Less Concrete premiered 2012 for Arts House Melbourne; remounted 2013 for Dance Massive Australia; and presented 2014 at Noorderzon Festival in the Netherlands. Collaborators included performers Sophia Cowen, Matthew Day, and Josh Mu, set designer Bosco Shaw and sound designer Jem Savage. The project was developed in partnership with producers Kara Ward, Alison Halit and Arts House.
