Tug of War
Using the moving image in experimental ways to channel and collaborate with other art forms, push the boundaries and discover new avenues and techniques.
Visual record of dance piece "Tug of War" for dance company Sight by Side. As part of the their submission to the Schiume Performing Arts Festival 2013 project was awarded participation in the festival and commissioned to create a new piece. The new piece that ensued called "Conflict" was a piece that explored unity amidst dissension. A seminal work which featured a Turk and a Cypriot dancing together. The project comprised a live performance in a walled ex-arms factory on the outskirts of Venice, with an accompanying film projection of the commissioned film which sprang from this initial collaboration.
