Re-shaping Landscapes is a collaborative multimedia performance project, delving into the ephemerality of disappearing and transforming landscapes. This practice-as-research situates the body at the forefront of the discourse, initiating a dialogue with changing landscapes, and asking how we humans inhabit, adapt and live in those transforming landscapes that are being reclaimed by nature.
Re-shaping Landscapes is an eco-theatre exploration employing technology and performance to connect communities experiencing landscape transformation. The live performance will showcase dance videos of changing landscapes from the regions of East Anglia, Hong Kong and Cyprus; intertwined with life performance and virtual reality technology transporting the audiences to experience what it is to inhabit and move on the ever-changing landscapes of the Norfolk coast.
Audiences will have the opportunity to participate on a Movement Workshop before the performance. The Movement Workshop will explore codified movements that helped structure the choreographic exploration of the featured disappearing sites, and will create a brief performative action which will be showcased at the performance event.
16:00-17:00
Live performance including digital work by international artists and virtual reality experience.
Facilitated by Eva Aymami Rene, dancer, choreographer and lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University; and Naz Yeni, theatre-maker, movement practitioner, academic researcher and a drama teacher.
Participants of the workshop session earlier in the day will not need a ticket for the performance but audience members will.
