The performance ‘The Glass Between’ takes us on an audio-visual journey while approaching the relationship between movement and sound through a simple object: A dividing glass. Evolving the elements of her doctoral thesis, Nefeli Stamatogiannopoulou is exploring ways in which the glass, a fragile but at the same time strong material, is capable of separating two worlds and to bring together the technics of music and movement in a creative dialogue. Actors, dancers, musicians and video artists all demonstrate on stage a continuous relation of boundaries and ideals with scripts inspired by diaries and reports of people who have experienced life in prison. The human bodies combined with the technology and the tone colour of the musical instruments, are constructing minute by minute a complete score with main objective the musical composition of The Glass Between.
