Double Bill Evening with Two Dance Works
Solo work by Lydia Touliatou
Sourcing from mythological narratives of female characters Atalanta and Persephone, Lydia is looking to distil transtemporal qualities of female existence through a choreographic exploration that suspends, hangs, glides, grips, levitates, sways (…). In this solo work, Lydia is interested in the perception of female physicality and vitality seen through the prism of different forces; from strength to softness, and everything in-between.

Solo work by Ryan Mason
Unfortunately due to an illness, Ryan Mason’s part in the performances has been cancelled.
The solo performance by Ryan Mason explores his ongoing interest in relationalities between sound and image, the plasticity of identity, and the performer/spectator relationship. Materialities of the body, theater technologies, and sound are entangled and animated by the performer, inviting spectators empathetic access to the uncanny and contemplative relationships that emerge.
