Phase 5 Sharing
30 Nov 2009 -
1.00 pm
Tickets: €Free
The BLANK CANVAS residents for the month of November were Phluxus Dance Collective, from Brisbane, Australia. During that time, Nerida Matthaei, Chafia Brookes and Skye Sewell - independent dance artists but devising and creating collaboratively since 2006 - were working on a visceral dance work exploring the concept of Boiling Point: “A function of transformation, high-impact, transcendence, a moment in time, containment on the edge of explosion, agitation, at the point of panic, your blood is boiling and the situation becomes critical, pushed to 100 degrees…” writes Nerida Matthaei.
It had been intended to present their newly created work, together with excerpts from their acclaimed dance theatre piece The Machine That Carries The Soul, as part of the mini-festival of international dance, along with Deseo by Nemian Danza from Mexico City. However, due to the emergency closure, this performance has been postponed.
Instead, everyone is welcome to share a lunchtime presentation of Phluxus' work to date.
Phluxus Dance Collective’s sharing will be a highlight of BLANK CANVAS 2009.
