Same Sun
with Maikki Palm and performers (2018)
Same Sun is a long-distance collaboration between Aotearoa NZ and Finland; a dance and media performance work that explores travelling bodies, time delay, the hemispheres, and friendship.
- A desire to abandon attachment to particular aesthetics, we fail and look to the future as we borrow from the past; our own scars, and others' glory. This work is an excerpt, a fantasy. -
