Fieldwork: Music and Dance Collaboration

This performance is curated by Yolande Snaith who writes:
Fieldwork is an exploration of what arises out of the empty field of awareness within which we are all present - listening, sensing, seeing, choice making, moment by moment - composing collectively in real time. This diverse ensemble of highly experienced dancers and musicians have come together through several years of open weekly practice at Ashburton Arts Centre, collaboratively excavating the field of possibilities of interdisciplinary improvisation.
Fieldwork is our first more-focussed project, aiming to structure an intentional journey through different atmospheric, dynamic, emotional and qualitative fields of sound and movement. The structure serves as a kind of map for the performers to navigate - feeling their way through and making moment to moment relational choices within their respective dance vocabularies and musical instrumentations. Each individual contributes to the creation of the collective whole. Nothing is fixed. The door into new exploration and discovery is always open.
