Vitruvian Man
Having made its striking debut at Resolution Festival, Lucy Turner’s Vitruvian Man, based on Leonardo Da Vinci’s drawing of the same name, explores the illusion of idealistic human proportions. With an eclectic original score by Anil Kahvecioglu, the hypnotic sequencing of music and movement invites the brain to voyage through the history of fine art along with the bodies on stage. The duo intertwine, thread and paint shapes between them - celebrating the individuality within the architecture of the human body. Asking with eyes closed: ‘if I could dissect my identities apart, wouldn’t I be able to separate geometry from art?’
Don’t Wake Dad
‘Don’t Wake Dad’ is a choreographic work exploring the retrospective realisation of childhood disability. The work challenges whether universal concepts fed to us as children are actually accessible: paralleling an able-bodied society with being forced to play board games without knowing the rules.
Hint: The youngest player goes first!
Web Of Wombs
'Surrender to your surroundings.
Be held by the branch of this tree.
Womb. Naked. Feeling.
Ensnared in the gentle curve.
Be held by the branch of this tree.
And drift in the breeze or sink in the earth.
My body and you. One body.
Evergreen.'
The Moon & I
'The Moon & I' is a music and dance collaboration between Lucy Turner and AnIl KahvecioÄŸlu, playing on the gravitational impact that the moon has on the tides.
The Tartu Piano
'The Tartu Piano' was created in 2021 and was featured in the U Dance Film Festival of that year. The piece explores the topic of grief and confusion, and embodies the complexities in understanding loss following the passing of Lucy's grandmother.
Don’t Wake Dad (The Place Theatre Version)
Reimagined snippet of 'Don't Wake
Dad' from The Place Theatre (June 19th
2024), performed by members of Hidden Rhythms Disability Society.
Dendro
“My branches bend without splintering,
My trunk contains too many circles for my age."
My Blue is Not Your Blue
'One Day we'll have mapped out each other's streams;
You'll learn that I don't bleed the colour of my veins,
Our wavelengths will merge,
The margins will blur.
Why was blue the last colour to be named?'
Simon Says
'Simon Says' premiered at The Place Theatre after being adapted from the 2023 LC2 tour. This piece was made to question 'what is dance?' to audiences of children through an elaborate game of Simon Says. Adapted to a theatrical setting, this piece proposes 'if Simon says to find happiness, how long does it take for you to discover happiness for yourself?'.
