Your meaning not your materiality explores the choreographic potential of the sculptural process of casting in plaster. Examining plaster’s materiality, properties, and use of negative space, the work considers the ‘setting’ process as a metaphor for the ephemeral nature of the creative process. Blending movement with live plaster casting, the performance transforms the Leeds Art Gallery space into a mock artist studio.

 

Performed by students on the MA Interdisciplinary Dance Performance course at Northern School of Contemporary Dance.
