And Suddenly a Kiss There on the Back of My Neck
Ripe Time's AND SUDDENLY A KISS... is an original, site specific movement-theatre work about gender, nature, and the memories that define us. Set in a garden surrounded by 150 year old trees, "And suddenly a kiss..." is an immersive performance and installation that travels through wooded garden "rooms," with headsets and augmented reality glasses providing the audience with an intimately translated audio-visual score.
AND SUDDENLY A KISS, THERE ON THE BACK OF MY NECK
AND SUDDENLY A KISS... is an original, site specific movement-theatre work about gender, nature, and the memories that define us. Set in a garden surrounded by 150 year old trees, "And suddenly a kiss..." is an immersive performance and installation that travels through wooded garden "rooms," with headsets and augmented reality glasses providing the audience with an intimately translated audio-visual score. With the surreal soundscape of a Janet Cardiff piece and the lush choreography of a Pina Bausch dance, this new multi-channel memory book offers a guided tour of the hidden forests of one woman's life.
