Dwelling

  occupies the space of loss... 

​

The story of a house, 'Dwelling' imagines what happens when we re-inhabit abandoned space. Dwelling started as a film shot in the ruined mansion Poltimore House in Devon, and developed into a live performance. Combining imagistic movement-theatre style with vocal-looping and film, creating an atmospheric and immersive experience for an audience.

Dwelling attunes us to the presence of memory as story, through a cycle of non-linear storytelling to conjure ghosts  - a cacophony of voices - unheard, unspoken, haunting and haunted.
