About
When light hits a moving body and is reflected on the white shiny background it creates a phosphorescent glow, a half-shadow, an almost visible thought.
Reflect plunges us into shadowy psychological terrain, a half- remembered story that turns around on itself so many times that the distinction between what’s real and what’s imagined starts to disappear. Memory, imagination and visceral response are at the heart of the work. Vibrant images unsettle the otherwise monochrome environment, much in the same way an unexpected memory upsets the status quo. The images are brief; a rich and colourful hyper- reality that dissolves into bright white nothingness; an empty wall in a black space.
In this first stage of development Sue will work with designer Andrew Lake and five dancers to determine the use and reflective properties of the set, the creation and exploration of base movement material, and the creation of micro-narratives filmed and projected in life-size scale onto the set.
