They Gather
Durational performance | 2019
“I could have watched variations and developments within the entire work all day – for hours”
Audience member
The piece is part of ‘They Gather’, an ongoing international collaborative, multimodal, interdisciplinary project, creating ‘gatherings’ of people, action, movement, and sound. ‘They Gather’ consists of a growing series of independent but interrelated performances (modules) that explore the boundaries between audience, participant and performer, creating dialogue with environments, societies, politics, histories and speculative futurologies. The project aims to empower and open dialogues around the complexities and polarities of contemporary living.
