A journey through art and science into the unknown.
Combining dance, sound and installation, DEEPSPACE is a mesmerising, intimate performance that examines our curiosity for the unknown. Playing at the intersection of art and science, the body is taken to the extremities of remoteness and proximity, connectedness and isolation, certainty and uncertainty.
In 2016 James Batchelor was invited to be official voyage artists on a 2-month expedition at sea studying remote islands in the sub-Antarctic. From this experience DEEPSPACE was born.
ACCESS: This is a promenade performance but fold-up chairs will be available for those who require it.
This production is good for Sub-pacs.
