Performance / In a single action.

Aki Sasamoto, Rees Archibald

In a single action is a piece for dance and video in which the dancer is instructed to perform a single action as slowly as possible. This action is amplified both visually and aurally through use of zoomed video and a microphone.

The piece explores breath, the tension of the body and states of consciousness and could be considered the first work in the group of pieces that will explore ideas central to my PhD thesis.
