Skywater, Facewater, Underwater Waltz is a new project devised collaboratively and performed by Karen Christopher, Tara Fatehi and Jemima Yong. Karen has a long history with Arnolfini, performing here many times as a member of Chicago-based Goat Island Performance Group; now based in the UK, Karen has continued her commitment to new approaches to collaboration across a series of different projects.This project is centred around an interest in deep ocean life and culture: what can we learn from this inaccessible area of the planet, and how can we answer these questions:
Where is the edge of the sea?
What are we afraid of?
Can thinking take place without words?
By creating an underwater flow, various currents flow past each other in different directions the way shoals of fish do. The performers work with blending and combining, dissolving outlines between humans, and between humans and their surroundings. Drawing attention to the indescribable, this project uses sound, word and movement to cultivate attention, listening and connection making.
