Saturday 27 April| 18:30 - 20:00

FOOTSTEPS, SCARS, TRACES is a dialogue between place, body, mind and memory, collecting and sharing findings and experiences. Walking around the city, the neighbourhood and the project-space of Yellow Brick, she absorbs everything like a sponge and then filters like a sieve,collecting objects, images, words, sounds; the body keeps the score. In this way shecomes up with a site-specific blueprint for scored walks and/or performances and a - scene?: a tapestry of objects as an archive. Transformation is the vehicle, with a bag or bundle as its vessel.

The residency will conclude with a presentation at Yellow Bricks studio where traces of the residency will come together in an interactive presentation with the performance Do-Ing-No-Thing (The Thing of Being). We will listen to the sound of space, resonating voices and wandering memories and wonder about the nature of Things and how we are intertwined.
