Choreography: Lorraine Smith is the founder of Silversmith Performance Company. She trained in Butoh and has performed in the Shunt Vaults on two previous occasions.
Synopsis: Sun Dogs is a multimedia, site-specific performance. The piece draws inspirations from the distortion of light, which occurs in the labyrinthine passageways of the London Underground. Through a deconstruction of the movement of Butoh this piece will reinterpret the sun dance rituals from Inuit culture. Using the human body as a projection surface to reflect and refract light this piece will create a visual dialogue between the dancers’ bodies. Live tribal drumming will provide the soundscape. The performers will eventually leave but aspects of the performance will remain, thus blurring the lines between performance and installation
