InDialogue is pleased to announce the resident artists for InDialogue 2016
Chloé Déchery and Jane McKernan
On the Horizon
On The Horizon is a performance project between theatre maker Chloé Déchery and choreographer Jane McKernan, which takes the horizon as a starting point – as a conceptual framework and tangible space – to consider our relation to the landscape and distance within a public space. On The Horizon offers an immersive and intimate experience for a small group of spectators. The piece invites the spectators to gather in an outdoor site, sit in front of a particular vista and listen to a podcast commenting upon the landscape set in front of them. Combining a semi-documentary narrative, a dreamy soundscape with choreographic interventions set within the space, the piece enables the spectators to understand how the spectating act can inform and shift our relationship to your natural environment. What do we see when we look around? What can’t we see? How can we train our eyes to “see better”?
Chloé Déchery and Jane McKernan are running workshops with the local community as part of this project at Sneinton Primary School.
You are invited to join Chloé Déchery and Jane McKernan for a walk and talk on Monday 28 November 2016
