2 SOLOSBORDERLINES by Linda Luke (SYD)
TARKOVSKY’S HORSE by Peter Fraser (MELB)
BORDERLINES invites us into a sculptural world which maps shifts and delineations of relationship. Bold yet delicate, the danced score is underlined by electronic sound coupled with live guitar and by subtle lighting which carves trajectories and fields into space. Prizing open a series of finely tuned moments which are poised between one state and another, a woman threads us through a liminal world between blindness and sight, animal and human, life and death, fear and desire. How is the world inside these moments?
TARKOVSKY’S HORSE is about standing - the unremarkable position, too fundamental to notice, that defines our species. It is a dance about our vertical being, balanced between rising and falling, animal and human, gravity and grace. The piece explores the stuttering dance of everyday life, the simple gestures, stylised movements and exaggerated emotive signals which shape our world between earth and sky - wobbling, pulsing and flickering like a silent movie.
