Part of the AND festival
Got this work through emails sent out by John
I'm assisting a performer, get inside the PVC cocoon, make sure they are safe and comfortable, close up the PVC turn on the machine, watch over them as they perform.
I've got some amazing photos that I will load onto the log as soon as I can.
It' a very dramatic performance as they move inside, lights is thrown around the plastic, and each subtle movement becomes dramatic. What is more impressive is that it looks as though there is no air inside. There are two pumps, the large on is connected to a a vacuum cleaner (simple) once turned on it draws the air out of the PVC. There is a second tube that the performers have above their heads that sits outside the cocoon. This acts as a current, fresh air is constantly being pumped through, so you can breath easy.
Inside it has been described as comfortable.
The performances are open o the public on Monday 4 and 6 pm and tuesday at the same times.
