Artists Residency at Canal View

2019
Sound Designer, Composer & Associate Artist

Produced by Imaginate

“The residency took place at Canal View Primary between Sept – Nov 2019. In that time the P6s explored the space in and around the school. Using the canal and surrounding area as inspiration and movement as the starting point, they tested how they might interact creatively with their environment, performing in places and spaces they might not expect. Taking risks, experimenting, challenging and playing with the rules.

Holding, lifting, falling, lying, balancing, climbing, they created movement scores as solos, duos and groups. In addition, using the voice in melodic as well as unusual ways, they created a powerful choir of sound, harnessing the energy and power of the group.

They also worked with filmmaker Joel Venet to capture the live experiments and create something real and tangible for the group to reflect back on. The final sharing was a live performance of the song they wrote together and a screening of the film… with popcorn of course!”
